Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

I sure hope so, I really want to replay the wind waker and mario sunshine. But when I loaded windwaker it slow and without sounds. And the controller didn't work so I set the controls and now the game won't start.
But that's a different issue.

Here are my specs-

Dell OptiPlex GX520- First and last time I ever buy a non-tower computer.
- 1 gig DDR2 Ram (Running windows xp pro, I've got a decent amount of extra ram for games).
- Intel Pentium 4 Integrated Processor 3.00Ghz (2CPUs)
- NVidia GeForce 8400 GS (512mb of video memory)

It's certainly not the greatest computer. And with all you rich asses I know I'm going to get a few-
"you computer sucks! I got an Alienware ALX X58 you noob!!!1!"

Well, some of us tech loving people aren't rich enough to be a tech loving person. We're cursed!

Anyway, I understand emulators take a lot to run them although I do feel a little cheated when I can run savage 2 just fine but cell-shaded wind waker is so very slow.

Ouch :S

it should work, but It's pretty low end for dolphin.

What do you mean with

"- Intel Pentium 4 Integrated Processor 3.00Ghz (2CPUs)" Is a P4 dual core o.O ?

i wasnt aware of p4 dual core, but its still to weak for dolphin

It's an integrated processor. It's pre duel-core but the computer still recognizes it as two processors. It doesn't work as good as duel-core but a major step up from a regular Pentium.

Is there another emulator I could use?

._. is Intel Core 2 Quad @2.40GhZ good enough?
Most games run at like 55-60 FPS is anyone getting higher?

To MrFish : Unfortunately for you , Dolphin is the only emulator that succeded in run commercial games ( congratulations )

To iBored : emm.. The normal speed of a game is 50(SSBB)-60(any othe game) FPS , exept for those which their normal speed is 30 FPS (because of that changes in pal, ntsc orr other thing that I know nothing)

it's called hyper threading when it does that

aaaaaa... now I understand.

So He have a 15-30% of speed bost compared with a procesor without the hyperthreadin enabled , right ?

his cpu still is old and crumbly
