So you leave the EFB stuff on default? I've never messed with that. What about openGL vs D3D? For whatever reason lowering from 3x IR to 2.5 helped a lot. I'm using LLE and it seems to be working okay. How can I prevent it from going to that 63 fps and causing that little sound scratch?

That's shadercache stuttering; it'll go away as you play the game more. Exclusive fullscreen should help a little too; but I think it's mainly going to be the shader-cache stuttering. Making sure the frame-limiter is on auto should help as well.

I don't even see the frame limiter

Open Dolphin, then click the Config button. You'll see it.
