I guess that's really true, when I started with Dolphin late 2009 I started with a Core 2 Duo E7400 @ 2.8GHz with a 512mb 9800GT GPU
Most of the games ran pretty fine back then but yet sluggish, then a year later I upgraded to a Core 2 Quad Q9650 and a GTX 460 and noticed a big improvement and today I don't notice any difference at all from playing on a real Cube more then some occasional sound issues.
