I see a bunch of discussion about the GPU, but from what I saw on the write-up from Tom's Hardware, the Pi4 throttles down its CPU when under a big enough load. This was without an OC too, just stock clocks. That kind of throttling seems like a bigger issue than the GPU, as that's harder to overcome without resorting to additional hardware, and it affects other emulators besides Dolphin.
Personally, I have a Flirc case on the way (the entire metal case acts as a heatsink) and there are a few active cooling solutions for the old Pi that should work fine on the new one. Out of the box though, yea it'll throttle a bit under heavy load according to reviews.
