building new PC, emulator CPU question

[KHg8m3r]

It's not that we're Intel lovers, it's that the code that Dolphin runs needs strong single-core speeds. AMD CPUs are not built with high single-core speeds, where Intel CPUs are. The single core speeds of the FX-8320 are on the level of a first gen Intel i5/i7 at stock speeds for all.
