As the Title says, i'm not getting higher than 10-20 FPS which really makes Wind Waker pretty unplayable with all the aiming that needs to be done and Stuff. I tried some different Settings i found while googling and they didn't help me out so i came here with the Hope that someone might know a Way to resolve this :/

My Computer Specs are:

Windows 7 x64
AMD Athlon X4 750k processor with 3,4GHz Base
AMD Radeon 7770 HD Graphicscard
4GB Ram
(if more Information is needed, just ask)

If necessary, my Dolphin Settings:

So yeah, hopefully you Guys can help me out asap Smile

Your CPU is a bit slow for the game. Try overclocking if possible (if you´re on a desktop, it´ll be more "secure" than on a laptop").

Seems weird, my old PC was way worse than this one and i had about the same amount of FPS on it, well dunno.

I can overclock my CPU up to 4GHz, but i doubt that this will help Tongue
You're probably running the game under LLE audio. Right-click the game in Dolphin and go to Properties. Select HLE audio from here (not by clicking the DSP button). 4.0 and above will override your settings with preconfigured settings in .ini files; LLE audio is set as the default however and it's more demanding than HLE audio.

If you do use HLE audio, beware of some issues you may encounter in Wind Waker. It's well documented on the Dolphin Wiki, and there are a couple other workarounds that don't involve LLE audio:

Ok so, i got it run smoothly.

Current Settings are Direct3D9, Force 16:9, 2.5x Native Resolution, DSP HLE Emulation and FPS Cap at 50 so it runs at 100% instead of 120% on 60 FPS Cap.
Thanks anyway for the help Smile
