Hello

Im trying to run games like super smash and galaxy and they stutter somewhat so I wanted to know about my system

Windows 7 x86
4GB RAM
NVidia GTX 650 ti 1GB
Audigy 2 ZS

Is there any plugins I should install that maybe make it better? Thanks

Any other information, just ask Smile
Your GPU - Nvidia GTX 650Ti is powerful enough for 4xIR (2560x2112) , noAA or 2x MSAA , 16x AF however your CPU - E6400 @ 2.13GHz is too weak to run anything

Well my motherboard is a LGA775 so I can get a upgrade but would overclocking the processor help? If so, to how much?
Smash Bros : 3.0GHz Core 2 duo (single player ) , 4.0GHz or higher/better CPU (multi-player)
Mario Galaxy : 3.4GHz Core i5 3570k or 4.2GHz Core i5 3570k (full speed all the time with LLE backend)

I imagine you ment those games in reverse Tongue but I understand. Thank you Smile

Could I reach 3.0 ghz on air cooling?

You can but it won't be enough (for SMG and SSBB)
Thanks and this would be the last questions:

Do I have enough to play GC games? I remember being able to play Super Smash for GC pretty decent.
Also can I offload processing power to my GPU?
GC and Wii games are similar in demand on the emulator, and both have a large range. Some games won't run on any hardware at a playable speed (anything that requires interpreter) and some will run even on weak systems. You'll have to tell us a specific game.

No, you can't use OpenCL or CUDA to decrease CPU load, firstly because it would be a lot of work for the devs to make it possible, and secondly because it would make it incredibly hard to sync different threads if they were that far from each other.
