Since I saw how cheap the G3220 is in the last thread asking this question, I've been thinking about an upgrade for dolphin. I've already got ram, HD, case, GPU...etc, so I would just need a CPU/board. $120 for a big jump in speed sounds pretty good. (currently using X3440@3.6GHz) Since you would have to get a GPU for shadowplay if you got a 2 core CPU, I would just go ahead and get the 4670K . You can use the intel GPU for now and get a GPU later, and add a cooler once you want to overclock. I'll probably end up waiting until I can get a 4670K.
Budget build:
G3220 $70
Board $50
4GB ram $50
GTX 750 $120 (for shadowplay)
case $50
1TB $65
total $405
Fast build:
4670K $220
Z87Board $150
4GB ram $50
intel GPU $0
case $50
1TB $65
total $535
