I'm posting this thread in hopes that somebody can get me to run Wind Waker on the best (if not full) speed possible, either by changing the graphic settings or fiddling around with the hardware itself.
I'm posting my specs in screenshots, so I don't miss any info.
Here you go
PC Specs
Dolphin Configuration
In-game Screenshot
Thanks in advance!
Your CPU is weak, try older builds, they're prone to be faster... Try r6515...
Even though Zelda WW is a light weight game , your CPU is just slow for most games
You can download the preconfigured Dolphin in
this thread
Old Dolphin builds run faster (depending on the game) but old dolphin builds are less accurate . Keep in mind that we don't support old Dolphin builds
Latest Dolphin is out of the question for your specs
Welp... I tried the benchmark build and with or without alterations I got pretty much the same results
Then I tried the r6515 build, I got a performance boost of about 10% with d3d11 with some alterations but now...
the locals are throwing their textures at me...
So where should I go from here, should I try to overclock the CPU or fix the build that I tried?
Check your temperatures. Make sure your cpu and gpu aren't throttling. Speaking of that, which gpu do you have?

It's up there in the specs: ATI Mobility Radeon 4500/5100 HD Series
Also, I saw earlier on of your threads about ThrottleStop and I gave it a spin, here's a screenshot of it with WW running, might be more helpful
Also i'm transferring the rom to a pen, if that impacts anything...

That's almost as vague as saying "ATI". Which one?

Your screenshot shows the title screen running at fullspeed. Take a screenshot in a spot where you're having slowdowns.

By "pen" I assume you mean a usb flash drive. And no it shouldn't.
Try using r6515 with DX9 backend for the best results...
