Short answer: No, your cpu is crap.

You do realise that for dolphin the GPU is fairly irrelevant as long as you are happy with only wii quality graphics. Also, some i3s are sufficient, and value for money the i5 2500K is the best processor, as i7s cost far more and will give a negligible speed increase.

Dont bother, the post was way off as the 9600GT can handle 3x IR in dolphin
