I was wondering if you guys could reccommend the best settings for Dolphin on my Macbook Air. I'll list the specs down below just in case. I get a good 60 fps on Mario Kart Double Dash and Melee, but I want 60 fps on Wii games, i.e Mario Galaxy.

Now, before I list the specs, I seem to get a lot of crap on the threads for even posting these kinds of things, so in advance, I apologize for trying to ask for help. Also, please do not call Mac users a minority, as it is just crude and not helpful in any way

Specs:
1.4 GHz Intel Core i5
4 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Intel HD Graphics 5000 1536 MB

Not to mention I have a turbo booster for the Intel card.

It'a Haswell but 1.4GHz is way too low for Dolphin.

I don't have a mac, so I can't help you with that... But I will second what the guy above said: A 1.4GHz processor is too slow for solid 60fps on most Wii games. Sorry. You can try messing with settings and any advice you get, but I seriously doubt you will get the performance you desire out of that computer.

why not ask in Dolphin's official forum?

Because GBA temp is more reliable.
