My computer knowledge comes from 8086 & 80286 Intel Cpu's and Cyrix (R.I.P). So I know what I need and expectations since first and second generation pentiums. Now I only think Cost and Efficiency. I wasted many dollars to old Pentium HT's and dual cores before. Now I am happy with Amd and I can feel the warm of my pockets if I get what I need without paying too much.

I'm not questioning your computer skills and knowledge, just saying that it still isn't the best idea to use an AMD CPU for Dolphin. Also, as Link_to_the_past mentions, an AMD uses more power than Intel CPUs yet they still have worse performance in Dolphin, so it isn't the most power and cost efficient.

There's The Last Story which is reportedly very intensive, Twilight Princess's Hyrule Field (completely "unlocked") is also quite intensive but not as intensive as it used to be thanks to improvements.

Many more but I cant remember the names. I can play all of them at full speed most time during gaming. Minor fps drops without notice.

Well, here's the difference: a good Intel CPU will be able to run those at full speed even in the most intensive parts, not just "most time". Even with LLE (although that's less useful nowadays with most games as HLE gets better).

I know you dont question my skills and knowledge but you dont understand yet what I want to tell. I just want to tell that cost efficiency. What you get against what you pay. Thats all. Simple and easy. I am not talking about or any comparison between Intel or Amd at dolphin. I am just talking about my satisfaction with last revision and tell that It is very good improvement for AMD users who wants to play wii games on their Pc's. Otherwise of course Intel outperforms Amd when you talk about the performance. I also aggree that intel has way better compatibility with Dolphin. I cant say opposite.

With "most time" I dont mean huge performance impacts. 2 or 3 fps is not noticable from me when gaming with last revision. I played all games 1st and 2nd levels which is at above and didnt feel slowdown but FPS indicator shows sometime 25 and 27 Fps when open areas and crowded places. Especially tested with games which I get poor performance before.

I will try Twilight Princess's. I checked from wiki and It looks like an adventure/fantastical game. Honestly if I get poor performance I will not think to miss anything because I dont like such and similar games. But I will try it.
