Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

Yo, I have dolphin and I noticed that it doesn't run games good, Kirby air ride should run flawlessly, but it doesn't even run at max frames, here's my specs:

CPU Intel i5 4690k 3.50GHz

GPU Nvidia GTX 660 TI

RAM G.Skill rip jaws 8 gigs

OS Windows 10

Not overclocking since I'm scared to fuck my rig up.
Does anyone have an idea as to what the dang diddly squat is wrong with it?

Since you're on Windows 10 , you should try Direct3d12 back end if you haven't tested it already . With the new back end , I don't think you would need overclocking . In fact , even the most demanding game like TLS run flawlessly on my lower clock i7

I tried that, but it still doesn't seem to have any improvement, no matter what I change, nearly all games chug at half of their max framerates.

Can you post screenshots of your graphics settings
