As miegs3 mentioned below, I would be happy to perform any kind of testing you might need, if you decide to tackle this.

However, does exclusive fullscreen affect performance in any way for you?  It still confuses me that it makes performance worse for me.

With exclusive fullscreen your GPU drivers will detect dolphin as a proper 3D application, meaning any global 3D settings applied through the driver will take effect. So you should check if you are overriding any Dolphin settings in the drivers.

If that isn't the problem please create an issue on the issue tracker with your system specifications and then we can research it further.
Thank you. I will check tonight although I'm pretty sure I have all the general settings in the Catalyst Control Center set to respect the application's settings.
Everyone who is having the exclusive fullscreen problem described in the OP, please try this build: http://dl.dolphin-emu.org/prs/pr-1894-dolphin-latest-x64.7z
This build works: fullscreen opens (checked in the game Burnout).

Thank you!
How can you tell if the game is now launching in exclusive fullscreen vs. borderless window?
By unchecking the borderless window option?

Works perfectly! Thanks Armada Smile

I can also confirm that this build works perfectly as well.... Thank you very much for promptly working this issue out... As always good work!
Can you confirm when this is merged to master?
Nicely done!
I can confirm operation as well.
Thank you.

Now, if I can only find out why the heck I'm dropping 33% of my FPS in XF mode.
I switch on and off all the CCC options that were not "let the application decide", and turned off RadeonPro but to no avail.
