Experiencing Slowdown When In Full Screen - appollo147 - 11-23-2016

I am having major slowdown issues when I switch to full screen. In windowed mode I keep a constant 30fps when playing Gamecube games and 60fps when playing Wii games. But in full screen mode I drop down to about 15fps on gamecube games and about 30fps on Wii games. I am using the latest drivers for my video card, so I know that is not the issue. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

PC Specs:

Processor Intel® Core™ i5-4460 CPU @ 3.20GHz

Video Card NVIDIA GeForce GT 720

RAM 8.0 GB

Operating System Microsoft Windows 10 (build 14393), 64-bit

Dolphin Settings:

Your images don't show up, but I'd guess this is because you have a weak/average GPU and the IR is set to "auto". So at fullscreen, it ends up being too much to handle for your GPU.

The images show up for me, and the IR is set to native. The only performance-affecting graphics settings I can see are vsync and real XFB.
