3 gigs ram
Cause at the moment Im pullin like 5-8 fps and my shit runs smooth with all modern games...riddle me that! ...do i need to download a patch or wtf?
Any help is appreciated
tell about
- the game
- your preferences in config/gfx/dsp
there are certain games with certain scenes where your pc will unlikely get more then 2-3fps
and there are others where you could get many hunderts of fps.
sometimes that can happen inside ONE game ! (example : huge area vs starting screen)
just talking about any number without information which game and situation is worthless.

Fair enough- forgive me... ok heres the deal-
Game is metroid prime. Starting screen shoots between 15-30 fps, if I wait all that out to the point where I can actually control the guy- it doesnt get ANY better (thickens down to 5-6 fps), and in fact when i DID wait it out and begin to creeeeeeeeeep dolphin came up with an error....something about POSSIBLY not being able to run THAT type or formated iso? i think thats what it said...idk- i just tryed to make it happen again and this time windows closed it so....whatever
and as far as configurations go... its default- standard. I havent even begun to play with that stuff... don't even know where to begin...

Go to Config and turn on "Enable Dual Core"

HAHA- tysvm, anything else I should know?
Edit:
Perhaps the answer to my other predicament can be figured out here as well... that error just popped up again...it says its using the "TLB" to map memory... and Dolphin doesnt support that...NOW what do i do? Or is there anything I CAN do?
for max performance :
(better perform step by step, it could break the game)
- dualcore
- idle skipping
- all 5 advanced setting on (should be on default)
in gfx :
- native resolution
- dont use real xfb (should be on default)
- enhancements all lowest
in gfx -advanced :
- efb-copy : disable (tick)
- all other off
thats pretty much all you can do.
Metroid is known to need very good hardware so dont exspect to run it at full speed.

Thank you too Iulius, turning on the dual core REALLY helped- also turning enhancements to lowest... if you could- please refer back to my last edited post and see if you can't help me figure that problem out... if not thanks anyways
use save texture cache for metriod games. (makes the game run a bit slower ... but it is working then)

And that DID do the trick... tyvm thank you ALL for all the help!
metroid prime is also a very cpu intensive game so don't expect to get fullspeed
