I've looked around a lot but I don't have a good indication whether my CPU is an issue or not. I haven't had the issue of a game being completely unplayable for a while, but I'm here with Super Mario Sunshine and its hovering around 78-85% speed with literally minimum settings, including using the experimental settings. And it will dip far below that for considerable amounts of time.
I've got a processor of:
AMD Athlon™ 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 5400+ (2 CPUs), ~2.8GHz
Because I can play on medium settings for most of the more recent games, I figured the difference here might be CPU, but I just have no idea whether this is good for Dolphin, or even just computer games in general. I am running 32 bit windows, it might be noted.
Also this is a small general question I had that you can choose to not answer, but for most graphics cards and I think CPUs minimum requirements say 'Greater than 5400' or something, and then recommended requirements will say 'Greater than 460'. How does one actually tell which is better?
