So finally got the EVGA Nvidia GTX 650. Got it for about $109 or so off Amazon. Had to buy it used though since sold as new it was just a hair over what I had at the time. But this one is pretty much in like new condition anyways, so it's a non issue.
Thus far Dolphin is running pretty well on it and I even got BF4 to get close to 60FPS on high settings on my monitor's native resolution (1680x1050).
As for Dolphin, Mario Kart Wii lags a little in the menus and during the track intro, but seems to run much better. Mario Kart Double dash feels like it's trying to go faster but it's being held back by V-Sync. So it's pretty much smooth as butter right now.
I guess the old GT 240 just doesn't get along with Dolphin. Especially the newer versions that have the DX11 backend since that card only did DX10.1 or something. This new card has proper DX11 support.
Thus far very happy with this card and the crashing seems to have gone away. I'll let you know if anything changes.
