That's also a 120W CPU. and when you overclock those chips you're going to push that way higher, and you already need some pretty decent coolers to get that. If AMD didn't sell those chips so cheap there would be no reason to buy them.
The $60 USD G3250? 53W TDP, and overclocks pretty high on the stock heatsink because that TDP is so low for a haswell chip without even bumping the voltage.
And Intel's Skylakes are becoming even more efficient even their ULV CPUs can run Dolphin okay-ish if you don't push the res above 2x (Or have an nvidia/iris pro GPU)
With emulation, intel is really hard to beat considering all you need is a $60 G3250 and you're set.
