Well, maybe not all the cards have + fps in dolphin with this drivers. In my gtx i get +9 fps, in other series i dunno.

Test mkwii and smg(Show fps on, and remember, the fps increase happen without OpenCL) and tell us the results.

i don't have that games sorry. maybe the problem is my graphic card as you said...

Downgrading to 190.89 on 9800 gt helps ^^.

Sorry mods if I'm not supposed to post links, but there are a "new" nvidia beta drivers 196.34 avaiable ....

- Supports OpenCL 1.0 (Open Computing Language) for all GeForce 8-series and later GPUs.

From my understanding a lot of people who still prefer 188.x (i.e.188.43) non-OpenCL series over any newer released drivers. I’ll try to run some benchmarks this weekend with different drivers in the mix. I do recommend using driver sweeper utility to clean video driver leftovers prior installing new ones.

And yes PLEASE use at your own risk :-)

BTW... what is the best method to benchmark Dolphin?

Well u can test dolphin using "show fps options" and test all the possible audio and video configurations. (opengl, d3d, antialias off/on, progresive scan, vertycal sync, DirectSound, OpenAL).

Im not an expert but thats my personal opinion.
