1. MacBook
- 2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
- 4 GB RAM
- NVIDIA GeForce 9400M, 256 MB

2. MacBook Pro
- 2.4 GHz Core 2 Duo
- 4 GB RAM
- NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT, 256 MB

3. Mac Pro
- 2.66 GHz Quad Xeon
- 6 GB RAM
- NVIDIA GeForce GT 120, 512 MB

I didn't test Dolphin v3, yet. Perhaps your OS version, namely 10.5.8, is too low. Give it a try on 10.6.7/10.6.8 or on the upcoming 10.7, releasing in July. Moreover - as a general tip to accelerate your entire system - you should expand your RAM to at least 4 GB/max. 8 GB - 2 GB are too low!

Over'n'out,

n8wlkr...

You have too much money Tongue
Okay, so I should get a windows version using bootcamp. I can probably get bootcamp to work w/out any help, but where can I find the things needed for it like in download terms? (I.E. Windows Disk and anything else I might need) Can someone post links to free downloads?

in which way is RAM accelerating the entire system?
is the cpu clock related to your RAM?
the GPU sharing the RAM?
or is OS 10.6.8 eating 3gb for effects?

(just started dolphin... task manager shows 2gb overall usage...)
ohhh wait opera is open, ohh firefox too, skype,icq,dolphin

OH NOE
