@vegetable : with this small teaser , even a nasa Computer couldn't emulate WW properly because the combiner is far away from perfection ^^"

@Kiantsu : sry i can't hold it back : N00B !! :D Okay back to topic : Don't try to use 1Gig of ram , it wouldn't work either ^^ On my Pc (It's nearly top-notch , specs below) I got : 6Fps , the Black thingy around link is still present , link's textures are f**ked up and people are red or blue . Ok Got it ? It wont work to upgrade your specs , it's the emulator that has to be upgraded... just wait and see ;)

Yes, but Windwaker won't run at full speed on the ATI RADEON 9600. You may get some colours but it won't be playable.

If you want to play Windwaker you have to buy a Gamecube.

I don't wanna play full WW, I KNOW THAT IS UNPLAYABLE, only that if ATI RADEON 9600 is better, I would buy it

It is better, but you seem insistent on buying parts for, and only for, Dolphin. That's the wrong way to go about things in my opinion. If your PC games require more video power, buy a new video card. If you want to see WW in color, buy a Gamecube.

Yes, it's very much better, but you should buy the radeon9600XT since it is much fast and buyable. And NO, only buy it, if your pcgames run at a low detail level... (I think, they do, because the mx is a piece of crap... sorry for my explanation...)

I wanted to change parts of my pc BEFORE of knowing nothing about dolphin, the matter is that in changing a piece I can get something better in a program, I choose it

?????????????????????????
Gamecube ($99) + WW ($60) = $160
New processor + more memory + new mainboard + new gfx card = way above $160

Dude, see reason.

If you wanna to buy a videocard..... buy a radeon9600xt or an fx5600u or fx5900xt (they're the best cards at good price)....... mx cards are crap pieces..... but don't expect a better emulation in some emus, because emulation is more processor dependant than gfx dependant...... expect much more in games......

Also Before You Upgrade, Consider: PCI Express Is Comming out Soon, So Are The New ATI CArds Made For PCI Express, Better cheaper Athlon 64 mobos, Nvidia will be on PCI Express Also, Why Do You Think There Hasent Been New Cards In Monthes.....

I Say Wait And Save Your $$$, Untill Newer Technology Is Here, Shouldent Be More Than A Few Monthes..... :king:

If you are looking for a good video card not only for Dolphin but for any PC game, get a Radeon 9500 or higher, and not an SE model.

Don't get GeforceFX though, they aren't nearly as good as they are promoted to be.

We are initiating a non-end discuss :gunman: , but i don't agree...... my card is not even Ultra but is very good.

i work with computers since 1994 with total knowledge of technologies and marketings, etc... and if you wait for new products for months, you will never buy new parts, you will wait more and more...... only wait for new products for one or two months, not for more than this.
These newer technologies have some enhancements, but this is not a revolution, or a "must wait to buy"......
Athlon64 is only the really good new tech part, but PCI Express for me is only a new AGP16x... don't wait for cheaper PCIx cards...


PS.: in all cases you can evaluate an radeon9600+, and gffx5600+ and buy.. have many reviews in specialized sites, you can take a look......
