I assume your CPU is the AMD Phenom X4 945?

No, if you're looking to boost your performance, you'll need a better CPU.
What games are you trying/playing?
And what are your settings?

OP should also be using 3.0, the latest revisions are known to have severe performance issues in some games.

disable anti aliasing (or set to 4x)
what display resolution are you using?
and set EFB Copies to Texture
Texture Cache to Fast

should help a lot...

I think Anti-Aliasing set to x9 is little too much for your Radeon HD 5850 if you're running Dolphin on high resolution.
