Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

My specs for my desktop should be in my signature, and I have no trouble running Dolphin 3.5 at stock.

I just want to know what settings you guys use for your high-end desktops (and notebooks if they can be considered high-end).
I plan on making lets plays/streams/machinima with OpenBroadcaster. I'm trying to get the best results for this by maxing-out settings that make a difference in terms of quality, without any speeding up/down, or anything else undesired.

I only play Super Smash Bros Brawl.

My current settings for Dolphin:


General
Dual Core: Yes
Idle skip: Yes
Framelimit: 60 Limit: Yes
CPU Emu Engine: Jit Recompiler
Lock Threads: No
Force NTSC-J: No

Audio Engine: HLE (other two stuff up)
LLE thread: No
Dump Audio: No
Audio Backend: Xaudio2
Sample rate: 48000


Graphics
Backend: Direct3d11
Fullsreen res: 1366x768 (my monitor's max res)
V-Sync: NO
Fullscreen: Yes

Internal Resolution: 4x Native (2560x2112)
AA: NO
Anisotropic Filter: 16x (Thanks to admin89)
Scaled EFB Copy: Yes
Force Texture Filt: Yes
Per-Pixel Light: No

Skip EFB CPU: No
EFB: Enable=>Texture
Texture Acc: (Middle)
Ext Frame Buff: Disable
Cache Display: No
Per-Pixel Depth: Disable
OpenCL Texture Dec: No
Fog: Enabled
Skip dest alpha: No
Openmp texture dec: Yes

Free look: Yes

So what to you guys recommend I change?

Anisotropic Filter : 16x
Most GPU can do this , even Intel HD graphic 1st gen

Thanks mate I'll add this to the list and try it out.
I did some further research, and Linus a great video explaining it:

Disable these.

Dump EFB target: Yes

You can also set texture accuracy to fast as that shouldn't cause any issues with this game.
Last but not least, you can set the DSP Audio Engine to LLE for better sound (accuracy) at the cost of performance.
You can also try the latest development builds which distributes the reverse engineered roms for LLE, has improvements on HLE and has some new options.

You could also change to dx9, it's faster for some games, however I dont know exactly for Super Smash Bros Brawl.
I guess try it and see if you get any speedup ?

IIRC, Dump EFB Target is currently broken anyway :p
