trying to run star wars rogue squadron 2 - where's the bottleneck?

hi all!

very excited to see that rogue leader is now supported, and have been trying to get it to run. I'm having a tough time hitting a stable framerate - using LLE audio, EFB access and EFB2RAM turned off (sacrificing graphics for speed), and even reducing the CPU clock to 50% - this helps but it still stutters at time. thought I'd post my specs to see what you guys think should be improved:

16GB RAM
Intel i7-980 @ 3.33Ghz
NVidia GTX 560-Ti
Windows 7 x64

running on dolphin 4.0-6002

I'm guessing it's my graphics card, but would like to be sure Smile

Your processor is the issue, the GPU is fine.

Also, that game is nearly impossible to run at full speed from what I understand

Intel Core i7 - 4510U
iHD4400
8GB RAM

Your CPU is quite old (an original Nehalem, I think?); you need a high-clocked Ivy Bridge -- or really, preferably a Haswell -- to have a chance at running Rogue Squadon at full speed. Older i7s are a lot slower per clock.

I still get slowdown at times and don't even bother with getting 3 to run full speed atm

Ahh, interesting, I always thought it was my GPU holding me back. Useful to know, thanks! Might look for a new processor sometime then.
