Dolphin can only 2 Cores. AMD processors have really low IPC (instructions per cycle) compared to Intel processors. That's why we usually recommend any modern Intel i3 over a FX processor. Honestly, I don't think there's much to do other than get an i5.
(No, Dolphin will never use 8 Cores efficiently, it just isn't possible.)
