I dont know why or how this is possible, but I found that raising my graphics to the max settings, gives me a huge performance boost when playing metroid prime. All the following settings are enabled, fps-auto, dual core, idle skipping, HLE, D3D9, Use Fullscreen (res 1024x768), 1x native, scaled EFB, 9xSSAA, AF x16, EFB to ram, Texture cache= fast, Fast depth Calculation, and OpenMp. External frame buffer is Disabled. My FPS=56-60 usually 60, drops briefly when loading, almost no stuttering at all. If I lower the SSAA, AF or both I get horrible FPS, lag, and severe stuttering. Any ideas why or how this is possible?
