Ok, Melee really didn't run any better than Brawl.
Trying to run a game (Project: M) at 100%

Well, the lags for pikachu lightning attacks and various other stuff is a known problem with Melee. But not with Brawl. I don't know why you are experiencing lags in certain moves with that game. What is the clockspeed of your 3770K?

I can't say for certain that anything in particular is causing the lag. Like, it may not be stress that causes it. It seems to happen randomly. For example, even in the menu, the audio is terrible. And I bet there would still be random "frame drops" (though my FPS stays at 60) if both characters were still. I just wouldn't be able to tell without moving. As for the CPU, It's advertised as running at 3.5 GHz. I just used the Intel Processor Diagnostic Tool, and the test it did on the system passed. It said my CPU Frequency was just over 3.50. I'm not sure if CPU Frequency is the same as the clock speed though. Running CPUz, it said my Clock Core Speed is currently jumping back and forth from about 1601 MHz to 3903 MHz. That's happening consistently, I'm not sure if that is normal for it to be jumping around like that. But since it has 4 cores, I think that might be why? Either way the Intel Diagnostic Tool passed every test, so I think I should be clear on that front. As a side note, I currently have "Enable Dual Core (speedup)" checked under Dolphin Configuration. Do you think I should? If I recall correctly, I tried un-checking it as well and there were no notable differences. Also, is it normal for cutscenes to massively drop my framerate until skipped? My FPS is like 27 during the intro to Brawl. Then it bumps back up to 60 immediately after. Just thought I'd throw that out there in case it is a symptom of some issue. Thanks again. I really hope to get this resolved. I tried to make sure the parts I purchased for this new computer would be powerful enough to handle Dolphin.. Lol. So hopefully it will work out. 06-02-2013, 05:19 PM
Okay, I'll try to give my hand at this.
I play Melee and Brawl over Netplay a bit with friends and in a group, and no one with that good a CPU and graphics card has problems, solid 60 fps on Single Core in both games. Now, I do know that nVidia GPUs tend to run Melee far faster than ATi GPUs from testing. Now, I'm not a developer, or that smart really, but during the intro of Melee, and probably part of Brawl, it's streaming video. I have the crappiest solidstate in the world that likes to lock up all the time, so during Melee's video, I get tons of lockup/frame drop if I run it from there, but on a normal harddrive, it's fine. Same goes for stage loads, new effects, etc; it'll drop to 15 - 20 fps until it no longer strains the hard disk. Now, I know older CPUs than yours can run Brawl/Melee pretty decently on Single Core, so it's not your CPU. Your entire setup is not only good, it's excellent. I really think this is an edge case of either a harddrive problem, or something completely unrelated like the ISO. Can you find out what kind of harddrive (or disc drive if you're somehow running from a disc in your drive and then applying stuff afterwards) the ISO is stored on? I use a 3570K for Brawl, and it runs pretty much flawlessly speed wise when I'm not using the crappy harddrive, even on single core, so, this is a rather peculiar problem. I really hope this is of some use to you. 06-10-2013, 07:14 PM

Everything I'm running is on a secondary hard drive: A 3TB Seagate Barracuda 7200rpm drive I also have a Kingston SSD but it only has 120 GB so I don't really want to put anything besides my OS on it Still though, I can run other games just fine off of my hard drive.. Hmm.. 06-27-2013, 05:44 PM
Did you try the last suggestion? Put it onto a different hard drive and see what happens?
