If you want to utilize 4GB of memory you're going to need a 64-bit OS, just so you know. Post your video card (or better yet your whole specs) and we'll see.

you have no bottleneck. Just overclock you cpu. Pm me for how or visit http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums to learn. Dolphin doesn't use more than 500mb of ram.

No, I think it uses near 1 GB, because of "Failed to grab 1 GB of contignuos memory" or something like this, I could be mistaken.
