Does it lag when you play solo? Try using a wired internet connection to get a faster, more stable connection. I don't know anything about Dolphin

What's the exact name of the procestsor? For example, it'd be like, i7-4690, or i7 5820.

Should be a newer processor given the rest of the specs (a macbook it sounds like)

You should test to see if the lag was offline or online. If it lags on netplay put the buffer to 100. That will test to see whether it's your laptop or the Internet. If it lags at 100 buffer it's your laptop, if not it's your connection.

I'm guessing it's your connection since it didn't happen before it sounds like. Try a wired connection.

Try playing solo and see if you lag there. If you play online with someone, the quality of the game depends on the other person's specs and connection as well. I run the emulator and game perfectly on my computer, but I played against a friend that was using a ****ty macbook pro and the game was near unplayable, nearing around 10 fps. Just keep tinkering with the settings

Use this as well
