Ok I'm confused

I'm just wondering. Are the current speed problems/bottleneck GPU related by any chance (as opposed to CPU related which is what I always thought).

The reason why I ask is this. Previous I had two Radeon HD2900XT's in a crossfire and I would get about half speed on DesMuMe (when there are 3D Sprites on the screen naturally). I have now very recently upgraded to a Radeon HD4870X2 (obviously not due to DesMuMe of course) and now Desmume runs at full speed (the test game I used was New Super Mario Bros). No other hardware (including my CPU overclocking) settings have changed at all. So yeah, is there a GPU bottleneck of some sort because that one has me puzzled. I never thought a new video card would affect performance that much.
