Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

Just upgraded and installed a new GTX 980 Gigabyte G1 gaming and HOLY BATMAN, RS2 and RS3 run soooo smooth now.

Question: For Nvidia cards, is DX11 or OpenGL better

Usually OpenGL, but D3D if you need EFB2RAM.

Most say opengl is better on Nvidia.

What type of card did you upgrade from? I'm thinking of upgrading my GTX580 3GB.

I upgraded from a AMD 7970. Kinda overkill TBH. It could still play BF4, and other games on ultra settings(MSAA turned down a little) so I didnt need an upgrade. I wanted one.

I do use EFB2RAM. Why D3D? 

Faster reads from RAM I believe.

I have a NVIDIA card in my laptop (GTX 485m) but D3D works better for me.

Anyone else has issues with the latest master builds? everytime i start to fire up Hoth it hangs after the cutscene.

5450 crashes for me after the cut scene too.

I haven't tested the later builds.

Thanks for the confirmation, i filled this in in the bug list but they think it might be of a bad dump of my iso. I finished the game twice in different master builds and i know it's not my iso
