I recently got a new computer, I don't have much time to post this (sorry) but I seem to get around 70% on MH Tri when I think it should be more than capable of running any wii game. What build do you guys recommend? (I'm just using the latest)
Sorry about trouble.
I'll post specs now, and pics of settings if needed.

" Operating System
MS Windows XP Home 32-bit SP3
CPU
Intel Core i7 960 @ 3.20GHz
RAM
6.00 GB Triple-Channel DDR3 @ 534MHz (8-8-8-20)
Motherboard
ASUSTeK Computer INC. SABERTOOTH X58 (LGA1366)
Graphics
VE248 (1920x1080@60Hz)
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti "

Thanks in advance.
You're using 32bit XP, and your RAM is really slow (unless there's something I don't understand). Install Windows 7 64bit and you will gain an extra 10% or more.

Is the RAM all that important or?
Only like 300MB are being used, I think.
CPU is at about 17% used.
GPU should be fine though?
Also, yeah getting Win7 soon, but wanted to test.

Make sure 64-bit Wink
Actual RAM amount doesn't matter, but RAM speed does. Dolphin only needs 1GB of memory, but that memory needs to be fast.

But, there's no way your RAM is DDR3 and Triple Channel and only running @ 534 MHz on an LGA 1156 mobo.. Seriously. That had to be a typo. The whole thing is probably that you're running it on 32bit Windows XP, which kinda sucks for gaming in the first place.

Maybe he meant: 1534?
