pentium 4 is not a good cpu to run dolphin on, no matter what you do, you will not get good speeds, you're lucky you can run dolphin.
maybe some cg games could run i dono.

Set framelimiter to off, use the D3D plugin ... if you want real help post your settings and we'll tell you what to change.
Pentium 4 is weak, though.

yep pentium 4 sorry but i dont think you can play games at full speed too old and if you have to buy one i suggest you phenom2 x4 955 or 965 price and overall many new pc game require big cpu gta4 before i got amd x2 5000 and i was not able to increase graphic more 1280 1024 with my engtx260 896meg top sp 216
i was lag now since all game full graphic 2048 1536 no more lag
if you buy a dual core you will regret cause all new game comme with minimum spec very high mass effect2 , crysis gta4 support 3 and 4 core
ps dont think i dont like intel but they just to expensive for what they do [/b]

Remember, to upgrade cpu, you also need new motherboard. Even with bios update, it is impossible to upgrade pentium IV processor by purchasing core 2 duo or higher & inserting it in the socket. It will fit but there will be a bitter disappointment because BIOS can't recognise it.
