    14:36: Those actually aren't lag spikes. The emulator is constantly compiling ingame shaders. In order to fix it, you could download pre-compiled shaders and insert some graphic packs. This wil both make your game run smoothly and render it at 60 fps or even more. Also, in cemu's graphic settings it's just better to use OpenGL, rather that Vulkan and using your whole graphics card.

    5: Install a modern OS.

    I know this is an older vid, but I still wanted to mention something about the Wii U emulator. On the Cemu demonstration, most of the lag spikes your experiences weren't from performance issues; they were from Shader Stutter (a limitation of modern console emulation). Using a shader pack should remove the shader stutter, but even without those hitches your performance likely wouldn't have gone above 20 or so fps in normal gameplay. Hope this was helpful!

      Not a good idea. Nearly all of those so called "Community" shader packs are bloated and have been made using much better GPUs than the Vega 8/11 being used here. It is always better from a long term performance perspective to make your own shaders. Ive been playing BotW on my GPD Win 2 with self-made shader cache, so I know what I am talking about

      also it didnt replace the DVD drive, only gave another option, you could still use your gamecube disks with it.
