Aero?

By the way, 4.0.2 stable works much better, with a minimum of 25 FPS. But since the loss of only a single FPS causes audio stutter, it's still unplayable to me.
Transparent glasses and stuff. Why don't you have that?

I'm sorry I don't know what Aero is, how you know "I disabled it" or how I enable it.

You install the correct drivers. You made sure to get the newest driver from nvidia.com, right?
Just choose the Windows 7 theme from the control panel settings.

Alright, set ot the Aero theme lol. But how is that relevant at all?
Also yes, I updated my drivers with Geforce Xperience, I even downloaded beta drivers, but GPU is not the issue here, I'm sure.

I thought you installed the DWM 1.3 Drivers from Windows Update, nevermind.

I've added an image of graphical settings. Lowering resokution or AA doesnt do anything really, nor setting EFB back to Texture or accuracy to safe. Maybe 3 or 4 FPS gain?

My graphic drivers are up to date, my BIOS has new firmware but I'm not too sure about that, and do processors even have drivers?

Try turning off LLE on thread. There's a debate as to whether or not it's effective anymore (https://forums.dolphin-emu.org/Thread-does-dsp-lle-on-separate-thread-actually-benefit-anyone )

Yeah, do a BIOS update. They can address issues at the lowest level of the system. Read the description of the update for what it changes.

Google Intel Driver update. You can see if your CPU needs new drivers

Using 4.0.2 and framelimit to audio, playing the game is near perfect, even with LLE. But I'll turn off seperate thread (my game did actually crash :/).

If you're not hitting 3.9 GHz during gameplay, TurboBoost isn't working correctly. The best practice for a "K" sku CPU with Dolphin is to disable TurboBoost, install aftermarket cooling, and overclock. If you can't do that, make sure you're hitting your TurboBoost max during gameplay. 3.4 GHz won't cut it in Twilight Princess with LLE.


RE: Bought Intel I7 4770k: Still Slow - KHg8m3r - 02-10-2014

Don't set your framelimit to audio, set it to auto

Check your clock rates and temperatures to make sure nothing is throttling. Change your audio backend to openAL.
