That is my question can use 3 cores or only 2 if so how?


and also wanted saver as you get better quality graphics with copies of efb

textured or ram?

Thanks from now Tongue
I'm guessing that English isn't your first language.

Dolphin can use three cores if you use LLE audio with LLE on thread turned on.

Image quality should not be impacted by setting efb copy to ram or texture with most games. In some rare cases efb copy to texture may deliver better image quality.
The image quality is mainly dependent from the Internal Resolution, Anti-Aliasing and other enhancements.
But what about the openMP texture decoder option in hacks? in the description it says it give speed-up to computers with more then 2 cores, but i havent seen any speed-up even tho i use a quadcore. :S
The OpenMP Texture Decoder won't give a speed up. But this "hack" can reduce micro stuttering.

but using LLE won best sound quality? more speed? or just Huh
LLE is mainly for better sound (sometimes it's needed for the gameplay of some games). LLE is more demanding for the CPU, so it's slower than HLE.
Plus you need to dump some files from your Gamecube or Wii.
