Wait, how could bad design by AMD that results in slower speed be Dolphin's fault? If I were you, I would save up some money and get a deal on i5 3570K right when Haswell comes out, since there should be a price drop. Then you will get the upgrade you wanted. Don't blame stuff on the emulator unless it actually makes sense and has a purpose.
