Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

hi all

I have compiled a short time before htpc. there I thought it was only for movies.

Now I have come to the taste with dolphine. Unfortunately, increased mario kart.

now my question, ranging from the processor? when I'm in the game and look under task Mesenger I'm at about 50% cpu usage.

My hardware:

Intel Core i3 4130T (LGA 1150 2.90GHz)
ASUS Z87M Plus
Intel HD 4400 grahics
HyperX Red Fury (2x 4GB DDR3-1600 DIMM 240)

on the instructions page is that of the i5-4670K would be good.

the onboard graphics card is not good right?


what I could do, I am building a 2nd htpc and take this to the bedroom.


thanks for help


regards

Intel iGPU integrated with the i3/i5/i7 later generation processors (HD 4400) is fine for Dolphin.

ok great, then the cpu is too weak?

mario kart runs the liquid picture, just too slow.

or it may be due to windows 8.1?

You probably have something set wrong. Take a look at this thread to make sure you're in high performance: https://forums.dolphin-emu.org/Thread-unofficial-laptop-performance-guide

thanks for the link

I've now set to full power the system performance.

and intel hd graphic below under the option 3d on full power.

the nvidia control panel I can not download it? have indeed an intel graphics card.

Unfortunately, it is still not gotten better ..

under dolphin I have set:

graphic Direct3D9.


Also the sound is very distorted.

what could possibly be wrong?


thanks a lot for your help


edit

if I set direct3D11 it runs smoother but not quite round.

the sound is distorted unfortunately.

I even saw above:


warning opening the graphics configuration will reset settings and might cause issues


what does this mean?

Get the latest dev build from here: https://dolphin-emu.org/download/ they're faster than 4.0.2 stable and more stable

You don't have an Nvidia card, so you can't use Nvidia control panel.

super thank you very much, now it runs smoothly.

when you start it distorts quite the little sound but is not that bad.

it would be worthwhile to switch the cpu on an i5-4670K?

I still ask myself a 2nd htpc together I could go to dan.

Depends on what you want to do with the computer. If you just want to run Dolphin, then nah.

ok thank you, get me in next time one

can someone tell me why it with the version 4.0.2 is not running well?

in the youtube video you can see many of the version . there it will work ?

4.0.2 hasn't had any of the improvements added to Dolphin over the last year and a half.
