Pretty sure using LLE is a moot point now that HLE is pretty much fixed.
Except that its not. It's only fixed for AX. So not for SMG or MKDD or anygame that uses zelda ucode.
Oops, my bad. That would explain why Star Fox Assault has crackling audio (being a WIP and all), but for the Wii audio, isn't that being worked on/rewritten?
Quote:(SLI)Nvidia GeForce Gt 650m (2024) MB
Buy a laptop that has faster CPU instead of SLI
SLI / Crossfire are useless for Dolphin since DOlphin only use 1 GPU anyway
Which Cpu would you recommend?
Uhm , It seems the i7 3630QM is the fastest OEM CPU for that price range .
The Lenovo costs 1150$ on newegg for Nvidia GT 650M SLi . Spend a bit more you can get a powerful GPU - Nvidia GTX 670M: 17" , it can run Dolphin at 4xIR (2560x2112) or ever higher for 1200$

GT 650M has 2 version : GDDR5 & DDR3 . GDDR5 is much faster and better for Dolphin/PCSX2 but Lenovo does not state anything about that (your laptop might have DDR3 version , who knows ? ), so your best bet is GTX 670
Qosmio is gaming notebook line from Toshiba and it has many good reviews

Did not notice this , so newegg is impossible for you
I wanted to buy it here; http://www.saturn.at/mcs/product/LENOVO-IdeaPad%C2%AE-Y500-i7-3630QM-16GB-1TB,90452,384054,601816.html?langId=-15

I know it´s a german page but you just have to press "GRAFIKKARTE", and it says there it´s with GDDR5 . Tongue
After getting that laptop , make you check this thread
It will help you squeeze more performance out of that laptop

Ok, i will check it then.
I am using a laptop with i7-3610QM and Nvidia GTX 670M which I originally afraid that it would be too slow for demanding games such as Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2. Although I can't run Super Mario Galaxy at full speed, it is fast enough it be considered playable. The frame rate I get is between high 40s to mid 50s.

Nice ! Big Grin
Because he did not use LLE back end for accurate Audio
If he did , Mario Galaxy would not be playable at all (due to choppy audio)
