no matter what I do my FPS rate doesn't change... the ONLY thing that affects it is changing the internal res... all other changes to the settings don't seem to do anything.
I'm trying with a couple different games just to be sure but mainly playing with DK. I can turn AF to1x and AA to none - 35 FPS... turn AF to 16x and AA to 9x - 35FPS. I've just tried changing almost every single option in Graphics Settings - 35 FPS.
oh, and my system
2.4 q6600 w/3g RAM (is an xps420 btw)
EVGA overclocked 8800gt (core700 and mem1000)
FPS limit off? audio throttle off?

Usually this means that you are CPU limited.
oh yeah, made sure the limiters were off...
ahh... makes sense Link... never looked over at my monitors, I'll do that tonite and see, might be it
well it sounded good, but all cores have loads of about only 50%
so what else I wonder.
Your CPU is weak , 2.4ghz ain't do (quad core doesn't matter with dolphin anyway)
Overclock to 3.4Ghz !

Overclock to 3.4Ghz !
why would the cpu load not be maxed then? have lots of games, apps, that puts full load on all cores. I realize dolphin is not optimized for quads, but was under the impression that it does take advantage of them. and again, the cpu load is spread evenly amongst all 4
weak? it's older, yes
but still performs very well actually. have brand new pc games too, no complaints there!
and yes, I've been thinking more and more recently of overclocking the cpu... hate the back and forth opinions on the subject
3.4 is a huge oc... seen it done tho...
GC games can work with 2.4Ghz for Wii it's anotha story...
