Base on Dolphin Benchmark , 4th gen i5 4670k @ 4.2GHz is on par with 3rd gen i5 3570k @ 5.0GHz or 2nd gen i5 2500k @ 5.3GHz (Actually , i5 4670k @ 4.2GHz is still abit faster than i5 3570k @ 5.0GHz)
Quote:I though the gap between 3rd and 4th gen processors wasn't that big, It is in general or only on specific programs, such as Dolphin?Yup
Quote:I didn't realize that GPU would be overkill for dolphin though.I wouldn't say it like that . Depending on the situation , GTX 660M is good for 3x (1920x1584) in demanding games or 4x Internal Resolution in light-weight games (2560x2112) . But if you add Anti-aliasing with that IR (For Example 4x SSAA , the resolution is more like double : 4xSSAA + 3xIR = 3x2 = 6xIR which is 3840x3168 4k resolution) . You will need a top of the line single desktop GPU GTX 780 (or better) to max out Dolphin
