Hi guys, I recently started using the emulator and have found a lot of lag during graphically heavy moments in a game. A friend set up the emulator for me because I'm a complete newbie to it, and it would help if anyone could suggest some tweaks to the settings I'm using based on my system's (Asus R558UQ) specs:

i5 7200U
GeForce 940MX 2GB DDR3
8GB RAM DDR4
1 TB 5400 RPM

The emulator has the following settings:

GRAPHICS - GSDX10 (Direct3D11 [Hardware]); Bilinear Texture Filtering; 16x anisotropic filtering
SOUND: 100ms latency; DirectSound Module; Catmull-Rom Interpolation

Until now, I've tried bumping down the graphics to GSD9, but nothing else apart from that. I'll do my best in the meantime, but if anyone could suggest better settings that would be much appreciated!
