It is rapidly progressing to a usable state, and is already capable of playing some commercial ROMs with only minor issues. However, due to its extreme focus on accuracy, it will also require good hardware to play at decent speeds. The emulator does not have sound processing nor a UI yet, although there are already quite a few good unofficial frontends available.
CEN64 is slightly unoptimized at this point. However, there are reports of people being able to run the emulator at decent framerates using at least a 3570K, and the performance is getting slightly better with each release. MarathonMan is aiming for system requirements on the level of BSNES. Whether or not that's possible remains to be seen.
