What's your reason for staying with it and not getting something more modern?
Because *cough* my family *cough* doesn't have time to buy a new GPU, so i will be stayed like that. (What? This is what it is. I can't help with that :glare:)

Buying a new one? Yeah, this will be not easy...(not beacuse of money. Something else)
Yeah, when upgrading a GPU from low-end, you will most likely require a new everything.

You mainly have to worry about needing a new PSU, then Motherboard, after that, the CPU and RAM needed to stabilize your processing speeds to handle the new GPU.

Upgrading isn't that easy if you're behind.

I don't need to upgrade everything. I just need newer GPU because it doesn't have the right OpenGL version.

Well, guys...it's been long time since i left for 3 months. CEMU is developing very well for now, but there's a problem with the emulator that appeared since 1.5.5.
It's this the problem with my GPU (downgraded from 570 to 260 because some sh*tty problem happened with 570) or what? I can't find the reason why that happened or how to fix it, so maybe right there i can find the way to fix this problem (if not then CEMU is not working anymore).

your problem is your running a cutting edge emulator on a 10 year old spec pc.

The problem is with my GPU, not with my "old PC".
I'm speaking out as a repair specialist. As I can see you ran the GTX570 before (the same as what I use daily,)
I know that you're running "decent." However, a 570 is about as low as you can comfortably go with Wii U emulation
before it starts to take a toll on performance.

Judging from the specs listed in your signature, you're going to need more RAM, and you definitely need a better CPU.

I say this because if you run your rig too harshly, you're risking individual part failures that can cause overheating -> irreparable damage. (i.e. killing the lifetime of your parts.)

I'm planning to get more RAM to play at better speed. However my brother will not have time to buy RAM. (Yes. Buy a RAM. What are you expecting that my brother will increase RAM by himself. It's impossible.) And about getting better CPU, maybe someday. Getting faster and better PC isn't very easy so i can't do this my myself ok?

If you or your brother can't upgrade your PC, then you're just not going to be able to run CEMU at any acceptable speed. Your hardware is just too out of date to manage a modern emulator, sorry. It would be cheaper for you to consider picking up a second hand WiiU.

My brother can upgrade my PC, but he will not have any time to do this.

Then you will just have to be patient until he can. Your current hardware just isn't powerful enough to emulate a WiiU in any kind of playable manner, sorry.
This gonna be a long time, but i can hold because i can play other non-emulation games.

Yeah, everything said up until now is true. I'm sorry to say, but... yeah, until you get better hardware, or have the money to get the hardware, I would stick to emulating anything below the 3DS (if maybe some 3DS.)

I'm glad you've taken what we've said constructively.. we weren't necessarily trying to come off as rude. Your computer isn't old, necessarily (we don't have dates,) but in terms of output, it's a bit dated. (As is my own computer.)

CPU: i7-2700k Intel, clocked at 4.1GHz
GPU: EVGA Invidia GTX 570 Fermi; 1280MB 320-bit GDDR5
Motherboard: GIGABYTE GA-Z77X-D3H; LGA 1155 Intel Z77
Plextor 128GB SSD

You're talking to me but you forget to press "Reply" button.

Actually my computer is old (well kind of). It's 10 or more years old, despite it works still perfectly, it it isn't that strong unlike others. But i don't need to have better PC, because it only needs upgraded parts.

I don't think so, if it is it wouldn't work at all but oh well ¯\(¯`_´¯)/¯
If it's within the manufacturer's warranty date, you should get a replacement... most people don't do this because they think back on it and go "I didn't purchase a warranty."

Products come with their own, stores issue a separate one for (in my belief,) no reason, and just to try and get more money out of ya.

comparison mario kart 8 using cemu 1.56 vs cemu 1.54 :

this is using v1.56



this one using cemu v.1.54


(+) v1.56 faster about 1-5fps comapred to 1.54


(-) 1.56 loading time in 2nd, 3rd, 4th granprix race is longer than 1.54
v.154 only took 15secs but v.156 took 25 secs

Smash runs decente on 1.5.6b but sometimes in battle goes to 3-4 FPS
And I tried to disable streamout and this happens...
I quickly close CEMU as I think Windows will crash
So: Never disable streamout if the games goes 3-4 FPS (or lower)
