I think you mean "heat" rather than "thermal throttle", because the more throttling you have, the smaller the risk of overheating is...

Shhhhhh. Don't challenge him... He's a PC technician! /s

stop acting like kids this is a forum to help people, i don't care what you believe or about ur sarcasm
I just did a second test to Oneplus 6 with the risk to damage my device, dolphin-emu didn't crash or throttle
continue to heat up 68C you cannot even hold the device I power off the device to prevent more heat.
I\m not claiming anything, I don't know if One-plus 6 have thermal management and i don't know if that exist to android devices

Do not use dolphin-emu with OP6 device at the moment.
end of story. and stop misleading information the people who asking help
If you don't know whether Android phones have thermal management, I'd suggest you to be the one to stop spreading misinformation about this.

We are talking about Oneplus 6 here again, and oneplus 6 get heated with dolphin-emu
Yes, Android phones get hot when you run Dolphin on them. Some less than others, some more than others. That doesn't mean that the phone will get damaged because of it.

SoCs can idle at 40C. 68C is not damaging the processor any time soon. All high end SoCs have thermal management and that includes the OnePlus 6. 
Claiming that a high end SoC in 2018 is going to overheat because it cant manage a sustained load without evidence is hardly helpful. 
Especially if your going to use an authority fallacy where it doesn't really apply.
Phones with high end SoC are perfectly good at handling high temperatures and managing them with efficiency. That's literally the point of Mobile SoCs.

Anyways, dolphin won't damage your device. That person has no idea what they're talking about. It will just run dolphin slow

This is the correct information, OP

As for your original questions

Quote:wanted to know if there are some specific and default settings to use with my OnePlus 6 to maximize games optimisation or if we have to do different settings game by game.

For exemple, my RE4 and Zelda runs well, but Spider-man 2 is impossible to play, or King Kong and Lord of the rings : The return of the king get slow motion at moments... Have you get any solutions about it or it's juste the game ?

There's no specific settings to make it go faster without probably breaking emulation in significant ways. You can try playing with the emulated CPU clock override and set it below 100%, but the games may not emulate correctly.

Spider-man 2 requires a certain feature called full MMU emulation that is very slow on Android devices because nobody has put in the ton of work to make it fast. Until that work is put in, spider-man 2 will never be full speed on any Android device anytime soon and there is no setting that will make it full speed.


Anyways, we're done here. I'm in an okay mood this morning so I won't be handing out warnings but note that the only reason this thread got locked is because you all are children that can't play nice.
