how much would this build be able to upscale?

You won't be GPU limited, so you can upscale plenty. But your CPU may be too slow to emulate a lot of games in Dolphin at full speed.

What about an intel xeon e5-1660 with the rest of the build being the same?

Better, but you'll still lag in some games most likely.
Basically, if you want to play dolphin flawlessly on every game, a haswell-class performing CPU at around 4 ghz is required. The CPUs you're suggesting are quite a bit below that. Lesser things will run for sure, but don't be surprised when games like Rogue Squadron or Super Mario Galaxy lags even at 1x internal resolution. 04-16-2018, 04:11 AM

Are you tslking about the most demanding games on dolphin? Because most of the games I usually play run flawlessly upscaled to 1080p on an imac with amd radeon hd 6970m graphics, and on Direct X 12, I believe the performance would be boosted even more by the graphics backend. 04-16-2018, 05:43 AM

Those are clearly not emulator benchmarks as Haswell and newer are weirdly fast at emulation. To put it into perspective, the performance difference in emulation between a 4770k and 8700k is less than the difference between a 4770k and a 3770k.
