AFAIK there is no AMD optimised compiler (for c++), did you see one on the AMD website ?

How do i choose specific SSE instructions. I didn't see that option. I assume enter something like /QXSSE3 on the command line?
also what about SSSE3 anybody tried that. do i optimize all projects except for the dsp spy or select specific projects?
newbie to this so sorry for many questions

Awesome, thanks for the latest release Smile

Going to give it a testrun again as usual.
Thanks spellforce I get it now. Will keep trying different options to see if i can get any benefit from this.
Gombit, I'm in the same boat as you. I am actually getting less FPS than with VC++ builds. I haven't tried any of spellforce's builds but I think I'm about to give it a shot. I think that I don't have the right optimizations picked or something.

http://www.mediafire.com/?wdjkio3jyjy 5030 SSE3 x64 rebuild (maybe little faster and was tested)

5021 x64 build quite fast for me so sad that after reconfig to make it better I forget that setting T_T
Thanks these works awesome!

Thanks you spellforce
I tested ur builds again on a completely different computer(C2D) but this time under xp32 and SSE3/SSE4.1 instead of win7 x64. Same result. Absolutely no speed gain, i just hope that ppl who are claiming they have speed increase are testing it also properly. Cuz i personally doubt that, most ppl are not even aware that we 've some shader cache stuff going etc.. And every time u start dolphin u already have a few percent fluctuation by itself.
However no increase on core2duo systems for me at all, doesn't matter which rev i compared, i cant comment on quads tho.
Thats why it would be better to distinguish between quads and dualcore cpu's in your Poll.
i am comparing properly and i get 2-5 fps increases!

i just start up ssbb w/ gc pad and inactive wiimote

then press start ......

i do the same drill over and over for everyone's builds and spellforces is the fastest!

is intel c++ free so that i can try compiling too?

thanks for comments and poll,I really like to read the comment Smile
