I mean I would want to play without glitches but that's just me lol.
Everyone is free to use whatever revision they want to, but if it's anything older than 4.0, they have to deal with any issues (and 3.5 has a lot of issues that 4.0 fixes) on their own. That's the rules on the forums. I never said you were endorsing older builds though; I was explaining why there was nothing wrong with what DJBarry said. He wasn't trying to talk in place of forum staff, just reciting forum policy.
Yeah I'm more for moving on.

Based on the new Dolphin CPU Benchmark (see General Discussion) an i5-4130 at stock clocks beats a heavily overclocked i5-2500K at 4.5GHz or something crazy like that. Save up for a mobo and a Haswell CPU and everything will be alright.
This is a bit confusing, every benchmark comparison I've seen with ivy, haswell, and sandy i5s show they perform only slightly faster from each other,
here is an ivy i5 vs sandy i5:

Is a haswell i5 at 3GHz really better than 2500k at 4.6 for Dolphin?
