Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

Hi I would like some suggestions for how to improve the performance of The legend of Zelda twilight princess. i have a computer with the following specs:

cpu- intel celeron mobile dual core N2830 @2.16ghz
gpu- intel hd graphics with 1762 mb of vram or around 1.7gb
os- windows 8.1 x64
monitor resolution 1366x768
(yes it is a laptop)

would there be any way to make it run at at least 25fps or if possible 30?

please let me know it would be SO helpful!

also my laptop is an acer if that has any effect on preformance (the exact model is an Acer Aspire ES1-511-C723)

An Intel SOC (System on chip) is too slow to run anything , sorry
If you want Dolphin to run well , a $400 custom build gaming desktop or a $1000 gaming laptop is required

Now that lga 1150 is dead you may start finding some cheaper deals on g3258's and 1150 motherboards in the near future. Bay trail(what you have) is too slow to run lighter games comfortably in my opinion, let alone a more intensive one like twilight princess.

If you want a small htpc like system that could easily do dolphin at full speed, this would be an example.

If price is an issue on his build, i tweaked it to be a little over 400$, a good amount less powerful, but it can play dolphin just well
