Though we're talking about Dolphin on a 4c/8t processor here, and Dolphin isn't exactly going to be maxing out even half of the CPU threads.

Worst comes to worst there's always something like ThrottleStop which will at least eliminate any throttling due to power restrictions, and it may be able to reduce or even eliminate any thermal throttling via its undervolting functionality as well (assuming that said functionality works on an i7-8550U).
