how much would this build be able to upscale?

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.

Looking at benchmarks for this processer, it only has about 700 less on the single thread performance rating than the i7 8700k, and about 300 less than the i7 4770k, which looks to me that dolphin would run fine. 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.
