Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

I got a Core i7 920 @ 3.8ghz
6GB of Ram @ 1700mhz
2 750GB HHD in RAID0
And a HD4670
Windows 7 64bit

Most games run at like 20-28fps. Mario galaxy[/code] is slightly less. I plan on upgrading soon. So what should I upgrade?

I'm considering eiher the 2x(XFX 5670) - 400 stream processors or XFX 5770 - 800 stream processors, but thats only if changing the video card will make a difference

What settings did you choose?

I use directx 10 for some games like FRAGILE dreams but most games i used OPENGL

I wouldn't think you should need to upgrade.
You should be getting better speeds.

Make sure you use the D3D9 video plugin and the "EFB Copy to Texture" option.
This gives most people a significant speed boost.

Make sure you have 'Enable dual core' checked, and disable Hyper-threading in BIOS.

I'll add this just in case: If you do decide to upgrade for some reason, I'd wait until AMD's 6xxx line of GPUs come out and Nvidia lowers a price here or there (both happen on or around October 19th). There's no reason not to wait a week or two longer.
