I began playing Zelda Wind Walker on the Dolphin emulator using a PC. On my 1680*1050 display (75 Hz), it runs about 80% of the original speed. When I launch the game on the same machine with matching graphics settings on a 1920*1080 screen (unknown refresh rate), it performs perfectly at full speed. I’m puzzled by this inconsistency. Can anyone clarify or suggest a method to improve performance on my monitor?

PC specs for reference:
- Core 2 Quad Q6600 at 2.4 GHz
- 4 GB DDR2 ECC RAM at 800 MHz
- Over 630 MB VRAM
- 475 W power supply (brand unknown, came with workstation case)
- Old workstation motherboard still functional

Do you play on a European version or a North American/Japanese edition? It seems the game's performance depends on the refresh rate, and you can adjust PAL games to run at 60Hz if needed.

You're using the American version. Forcing a 60 Hz signal typically involves adjusting your display settings or hardware configuration. You can also underclock your monitor to 60 Hz if needed.

Force the display to operate at 60 frames per second, you should be able to achieve this through Windows' control settings.
