great, thats a very nice speedup! espacially if you consider i only can use copy to texture with my current pc, because copy to ram is way to slow. I was looking a bit around some shop websites, and i can change that i7 930 2,8 ghz to a i7 950 3,06 ghz for € 25 more. Is this worth it? (not only for dolphin).
