Shocked 
GWAA!!!, ok so I'm running Dolphin on an iMac and it runs fine with a little bit of lag, But when I go to configure the graphics and the very second I click on the [Graphics] button on the top it crashes Dolphin, what's the deal? the one to solve this rubric shall be rewarded with a years supply of back-rubs.

Your GPU and CPU are very weak. Why you want to play with Dolphin on THAT computer? You won't be happy...

Not really, you need a whole new system with powerul components. (New CPU, new GPU, new MoBo, new power supply, ... etc)

Won't help. More RAM doesn't influence the performance in Dolphin.

For the actual problem you're having: Try deleting ~/Library/Application Support/Dolphin/Config/gfx_opengl.ini and gfx_software.ini. If that doesn't help, redownload Dolphin.

Even if it doesn't benefit Dolphin much, adding more RAM will be helpful in other ways. You can buy two 2 GB DDR2 SO-DIMMs for less than $60 nowadays - you may as well upgrade it. (The iMac won't be able to use more than 3.5 GB of it, though - it's a limitation of that specific model's logic board.)
