Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

Hey guys, please look at the images.

Skyward Sword in Dolphin 3.5 : 

Mario Kart Wii in Dolphin 5.0 : 

Super Mario Galaxy in Dolphin 5.0 : 

As you guys can see in the images, the emulation is not 100% and my graphics card obviously can do better than that, but it don't do more than 20% of the capacity and I don't know why. I would be very grateful if anyone can tell me what's going on.


PS: this occurs only with Wii games

Those pictures are missing, but looking at your profile, your computer is too slow.

done. Just right-click in the image icon and select "open in a new tab"

Yup, that looks CPU bound. Dolphin only really uses 2 cores (well, it's normally limited by a single core performance as it can't split work perfectly evenly between the 2 cores) - so seeing >50% system cpu use on a quad core machine likely means it's 100% of the cores it's actually using.

Really? From the screenshots you posted it looks like your CPU is pegged...

How do you know it's the gpu?

Looks like the CPU to me as well.

Listen, if you know better than the people who use this daily, then why are you even posting here?

so sad that is the cpu, i just bought this one yesterday, anyway thanks for the help
