Vulkan is still in experimental phase and it still is not recommended. | * Depending of the game and the graphics card: '''OpenGL''' or '''Direct3D 11''' in backend setting will offer better performance.

** Exclusive Fullscreen is available on Windows, it gives Dolphin full control over the graphics card. This results in minimal latency which is important for competitive games such as [[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]. More details on its benefits can be found on [https://dolphin-emu.org/blog/2014/07/31/dolphin-progress-report-july-2014/#40-2286-d3d-exclusive-fullscreen-by-armada651 Progress Report of July 2014]. D3D is well supported for Exclusive Fullscreen [https://github.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin/blob/master/Source/Core/VideoBackends/D3D/Render.cpp#L907]. Support on OpenGL is more of a hack [https://github.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin/blob/master/Source/Core/DolphinWX/Frame.cpp#L199]. Exclusive fullscreen is enabled by default when it is supported, it can be disabled by checking the '''Borderless Fullscreen''' checkbox under Graphics > Advanced > Misc. | |||
