Good stuff don't come cheap ($50)... Just give up. Either you buy a modern day computer or buy a wii.

Yes it is a big problem. Meeting the requirements just means you can run the program. It doesn't mean you can achieve playable speed in any game.

I would recommend at least a 9500gt or hd 5550 (both are about $60-70).

As for the cpu you need BARE MINIMUM an athlon X2 240. Even then you will only be able to achieve playable speed in a few games. Dolphin requires a very high end computer. I would suggest you either give up or save up for a high end computer.

Ok. I see. Better start saving. You know at this point I could just re-buy the games I want but the flame ain't dying out yet.
