Without sounding like a pompous the money isn't a problem - and for the record I had basically the best of everything you can get right now right down to case, watercooling, psu, you name it.
I aren't denying there are cheaper ways - I wanted a computer to play Dolphin, make music, play any game on 4k etc; I didn't buy this just for Dolphin and I didn't get ripped off; no disrespect but I paid more for the fact that the components are still considered new releases. It's like anything - you pay more on the first day of release (unless it's anything Apple).
AFAIK the best processor you can get for dolphin is a 4770K, they're cheaper than the 4960X and outperform due to the architecture and other factors.
And I have a real wii + gamecube + the rest but I don't like playing through consoles. The point of me using Dolphin is not only to emulate games but improve upon them too in regards to graphics etc.
But hey; your opinion is yours.
