    Under the ‘General‘ tab, use the ‘Backend‘ drop-down menu listed under basic section. You can either select OpenGL or the Direct 3D11 depending on your system graphic card and the game.

    Both backend settings will offer much better performance. While the remaining backend settings like Vulkan is under testing.

    5. After that navigate to the ‘Display‘ section. Here keep the Aspect Ratio ‘Auto‘ and check the box for ‘V-sync.’

    V-sync is a very useful graphics feature which helps in preventing screen tearing. You can also try Full-screen mode as give more control over the graphics card

    6. Under ‘Graphics‘ window for Dolphin emulator, you need to switch to ‘Hack‘ tab. Here on this screen you can enable and disable following features depending on the game title. The full details about the features are listed below:

    Skip EFB Access from CPU 

    If allowed, this can also boost the performance at the expense of removing effects, breaking some titles, and emulation accuracy. By default, this feature is disabled for providing the excellent emulation accuracy

    Ignore Format Changes 

    Most of the gaming titles don’t care about this settings, but believe me it this setting is enabled, then it gives you a small performance boost.

    Store EFB Copies to Texture Only

    By default, this feature is enabled. Only disable this feature if the game title you’re playing on the machine doesn’t require it.

    Texture Cache

    Set the slider for this feature to Fast, and it will make the Dolphin emulator run fast. But in case of some game titles, you can experience graphical glitches.

    Under other section, you can tick mark box for ‘Fast Depth Calculation,’ gives you a minor boost at the cost of flickering textures and ‘Disable Bounding Box,’ this is not required for most of the game titles.

    At last again, it is suggested that if you want to enjoy a better experience, then try to run the Dolphin emulator in a machine having high-end configuration and optimal graphics card.
