Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

I'm wondering how to allocate more CPU to Dolphin. I am running super mario sunshine and ATV quad power racing 2 and both seem to lag badly even when I follow steps shown in many youtube videos. I checked my task manager and about 50% CPU was allocated to Dolphin, no matter what priority I set it to. The memory set for it is good enough, but I need to know how to allocate more ram. Thanks!

Dolphin can only use 2 of your CPU cores, so it really has nothing to do with any of your settings.

I set it to use all 4 cores though.

If I gave you four basketballs could you bounce all of them at the same time?

I literally just told you that Dolphin can only use 2 cores and that it has nothing to do with your settings. I really don't think I can go any simpler.
