Dolphin uses 3 cores when LLE audio is on a thread. Also,your speculation has no basis right now. DX12 may take some load off of the cpu and it may not. Noone knows and won't know for a little while. I understand your computer has an amd cpu so you're hoping this announcement will mean better performance on your computer, but for now don't worry about it.
