Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums - Decent amount of stuttering in games

I'm not familiar to dolphin so please forgive my lack of knowledge, anyways, so I started to want to get into dolphin because all my friends moved away and went to college. I got 20xx Proj M and Smash 2. However, all of these games suffer from stuttering and random parts of gameplay, I don't understand why and I tried changing some of my settings but it continues to stutter, so I don't know how to fix it. My friend's older computer that isn't nearly as good as mine runs dolphin perfectly with no stuttering, maybe it's a small setting causing this but he isn't sure either.

Here is my computer VVV

Anyone??

Post some of the settings you have tried (as screenshots). Even if you feel you've "tried them all", it's helpful for us to see what you have. Lots of veterans around here may pick up something you missed.

Obviously the best thing you can do for stuttering is to try Dolphin's Hybrid Ubershaders. I think some people have had better luck with Vulkan, but your mileage may vary.

Even though you are on a desktop, please make sure that you computer isn't slowing down because of power settings > make sure they are on high performance. Also make sure you have selected the correct videocard (maybe you're accidently running on the onboard intel GPU instead of your nVidia card) and make sure that its power settings are on prefer maximum performance, also please make sure what GPU you have, because these machines can have a very low end GT730 card in it, which is slower in most games than the onboard intel GPU.

Make sure that your computer also isn't thermal throttling, because these machines are also very prone of doing that. To check this you can download an application like HWinfo.
