No, that sounds like it could be right. Haswell likes to drop the voltage on the CPU when it's not at full load. I get down to 0.1-0.2 at idle. When Dolphin's running at stock, my CPU's voltage will range from 0.9-1.1.
cpu-z also give that vcore under extreme load lol..

I promise you it's not actually 0.9-1.1v if it's overclocked as high as his is. It looks like CPUz doesn't like the new integrated VRM.

yup cpu-z totally ignore it all haswell cpu's have this issue because cpu-z is outdated
Ok time to show you guys my results, put me on the xlsx data sheet
AMD FX 8350 4.52ghz OC
8GB Corsair Ram 1800mhz OC
EVGA GTX 660 SC 2GB
ASUS M5A99X EVO R2.0 Mobo
Crucial M4 64gb SSD
Or anything not heavily multithreaded (when compared anyway)

True but they also cost a fair bit less than intel which is a good for a budget PC gaming machine

No they don't. With the exception of the very high price points AMD and Intel both have models with the same pricetag in most price points. For example at $200 you have the AMD FX 8350 and the Intel core i5 3470. No matter what your budget is Intel is better for emulation, period.

While it does generally help there are applications that are heavily multithreaded where is still performs poorly. Thus I would not make that generalization.
