I know a decent amount about computers, but I've never really been into gaming. I was wondering what I can expect from my setup with dolphin (I know it's old and not great and that I can't expect much). I was able to play Tales of Symphonia 1 and 2 with some success, but was wondering what I can expect from other games.

CPU: Pentium 4 3.6Ghz
GPU: Radeon x600 256MB
OS Windows XP
Memory: 2GB DDR

Also, I'm not sure what would be the bottlenecking piece in this setup the CPU or GPU. If you could only choose either the CPU or GPU to upgrade, which would you choose and to what? Thanks in advance, I appreciate any feedback.
Dolphin is CPU dependent as long as the video card meets the minimum requirements. Using that PC is a waste of time for GC/Wii emulation, though.
