Hmm. My 3570K doesn't have HT, so I'm not sure. I'm still a little skeptical though... How about this: let's ask the [http://forums.dolphin-emulator.com/ forums]. Ask them if there is a way to get HT to work with accurate Vbeam emulation. I can do it if you don't want to, but I'd prefer you do it as you could respond to what they ask and stuff. Up to you. If they can't make it work as well, I'll make a note on the performance guide. - [[User:MaJoR|MaJoR]] 09:05, 27 September 2012 (CEST)

98.249.80.249 == Neoh4x0r

I know this is mentioned in the Config section of http://wiki.dolphin-emulator.com/index.php?title=Performance_guide

However:

  • Tested with Dolphin-win-x64-v3.0-767
  • My processor is in an Intel Core i7-2600 on an intel H67 motherboard from asus (CM6580-01) which cannot be overclocked (I believe that you need an intel P67 to overclock through the BIOS).
  • So my cpu is stuck at 3.4GHz (turbo to 3.8GHz, but never goes above 3.6Ghz, definetly not 4.0Ghz+ [as most people have stated for DPS LLE Preformance])

I enabled accurate vbeam emulation (this got rid of the audio skipping with DSP LLE, but dropped from 30fps to 15fps) [without vbeam, I believe it was 30fps, but the audio would skip]

-- I tried enabled 'Lock threads to core' and several other options, none of them worked.

When I disabled hyper-threading in the BIOS (so my system would appear to windows as a quad-core, rather and a system with 8 cores) After, that (disabled vbeam emulation) and I had no audio skipping and was maxing out at 30fps (no slow down) [have not been to hyrule field yet] -- link almost moves too fast now.

This is way I added the comment to the Twlighe Princess page -- maybe a note about 'hyper-threading' should be added to the Performance guide, just as a side note (allowing a user to test that and see if it works, when all else fails)
