AMD FX6300 is not good enough?

Hi everyone. My PC has
CPU: AMD fx6300 OC 4.2ghz
RAM: 4gbDDR3
GPU: GTX470
It seems to be not good enough to play The last story smoothly. It is usually 15-20 fps in battles and huge scene. I have tried some version of Dolphin like r6505, r6515, 4.0,..., but there is no difference. Can i do anything to improve fps? Please help me.
Thanks for reading.

Games like The Last Story or Xenoblade require a powerful CPU like the i5-4670K. The FX 6300 is simply not enough to run it smoothly, at best I know that the FX 6300 can run gamcube games and a few Wii games.

@TheLastCat - GC games aren't necessarily more demanding or less demanding than Wii games. It depends on what code the game needs emulated and what steps Dolphin takes to emulate them. Once overclocked though, an FX 6300 should be able to play Xenoblade Chronicles (it's not nearly as demanding as The Last Story), but the OC still needs to be fairly high.

@thefallenone - The Last Story is probably the most demanding game you can play in Dolphin. It's not going to run fullspeed on your hardware in a consistent manner. Overclocking will help slightly but your hardware is simply too weak for this game.

AMD CPU's single threaded performance is kinda weak and Dolphin is a dual core application
An OCed FX8350 @ 5.0GHz is still slower than i3 4130 @ 3.4GHz in Dolphin Benchmark

Yup, the last story requires alot of cpu power. My i5 4670k @ stock runs the game great 30-31 fps most of the time but at big areas such as the first town after you exit the inn it drops to 27 fps and stays but still playable unlike my older rig almost the same fps (phenom ii x4 955 be).

for xenoblade 30 fps all the way no problem. this is the only reason my i shifted from amd to intel.
