does any one know i got a dual core 2.4 ghz 1.5 gb rams and a 9400 gt before u say anything my super comp was destroyed in fire and insurance said cause family member did it its not covered still rebuilding it
You honestly think changing from 1.5 to 2gb ram will make a difference? And what did you "check" exactly? Whatever you checked is dead wrong, as I have the same processor, MORE ram, and a significantly better video card, and dolphin is unplayable for me. You need to be closer to 3ghz dual core to run it well.
Try running wiiware. It's small to download, and uses a hell of a lot less ram. I've ran world of goo, the adventure island wiimake and the contra/gradius/castlevania GB wiimakes full speed on a computer with ONE GIG of ram. but ya. You aren't gonna get too far with actual wii disc isos.
heres a better idea for the price of what youll need to buy to play it you could have gotten a wii, gotten it hacked, and got a 1tb hd.
If you wanna good graphics bellow 30FPS, I suggest a Nvidia GeForce 9800GT, I with this Nvidia GeForce GTX 460 got above 60FPS in Resident Evil Remake and The Darkside Chronicles, these are well know as heavy games to run in Dolphin emulator. The version Dolphin 6225 is so far so good here.
emulation is CPU bound not memory bound. Upgrading your ram will have ZERO effect unless you're running too little for your OS to start with.
What game?? I use Dolphin and have 4GB laptop but all the games run way too slow for my liking.... Right now im saving up for a better computer....
yeah forgot to mention its 3.4 dual core not 2.4 lol my bad and yes it was my ram cause upgraded that and presto faster frames
Geforce 9400 is same as a 8600, but with lil' better things. Try overcloking or changing the GPU. A 8800GT or 9800GT is good, but for it's price, I suggest a GTS 250 or ATI Radeon HD 4870 About the ram, what matters too is the latency and clock, ddr2 for example can go to 1066MHz, but not many mainboard ddr2 support this speed, most are 667-800MHz DDR3 woulda be great, from 1333MHz The Emulador only uses 2 cores, so a quad core wouldn't be much help with this one, what matter is the external clock. But if you aim playing other agmes, pc games, I sugesta a quad core, amd is cheaper and better than intel, the cost x benefit is so great.
