But with dolphin , i wanted to play super mario galaxy 2 " lowest res. and no AA,no efb scaling "
and i only get about 60%~55% of full speed !

I guess this is my gpu bottle necking because:

1 - i have an athlon II x2 @ 3.5ghz which is enough ( i guess ) and it appears 100% usage of both cores while playing...

2 - i was watching the gpu usage on " amd overdrive utility " and it barely gets over 70% !!

maybe its time for a new discrete card

From the facts that you posted here your CPU is botlenecking, since always the one that bottleneck is the one that is 100% usage.

My config is:
Phenom II X3 @3.2Ghz
2x1GB DC Mushkin 1600 cl7 @1333 6-6-6-18, 13.8GB/s Bandwith
Integrated Radeon HD4250 @700Mhz Core, 512MB 667Mhz

I am using the 4200 with a athlon II X2 over clocked to 3.2 and it plays NMBW at full speed and some other games. SMG and SMG 2 plays at 70%, Smash Bros Brawl plays from 80% - 99%. and it all depends on the svn I am using. I use different svn builds and some games work better on one then on another one.
