Tips for lag / increase speed?

A lot of games I run are on the "perfect on dolphin" list but are extremely slow, so I'm assuming my PC just isn't powerful enough (32-bit, 2.53 dual core, 3 gigs RAM). Any tips on how to get the frame rate up? For example, Soul Caliber 2 is running at 30 instead of 60.

Thanks!

I get a MAJOR frps boost when i turn off the sound. Take off all the sound check boxes and you'll get higher frps.

Why turn off the awesome sound in SCII? (Joke Weapons HILARIOUS!)
Just turn on Dual Core in the Config Menu, first tab. I don't know about SCII, but SSBM went from ~20fps to 60fps, sometimes faster! Big Grin

No problem. Smile

If you have a quad-core, (or a tri-core, although I don't get how that would exist) then the sound, video, and computing is split into 3 part, and it is even faster! No need to sacrifice sound!

Actually currently it doesn't use the third core for sound and it actually doesn't help. they were considering that for the oh so demanding LLE sound plugin but since it's such a work in progress they haven't made it
