I'm trying to play pokemon battle revolution but it seems to lag during battles to 40-50 fps. I have an i7 2600k, 8 gigs of ram, and no graphics card. The turbo boost kicks the cpu up to 3.6 ghz when I'm running this game but not to the 3.8ghz max. Does this mean that my cpu is not the bottleneck and I should be investing in a graphics card? I had thought the emulator only depended on the cpu.

Dolphin settings are identical to this guys': http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Orn8Tk-LK84

I'm unsure if the cpu fails to fully turbo boost because it doesn't need to or because it's running too hot/other problems. The temps on load are reasonable at around 70C. What do you think, will getting a gpu help my fps?
