What I learned so far:
-Windows 8.1 doesn't always better than Windows 7
-benchmark isn't consistent between each runs, in fact there are three bad runs (not in this list) with good number of seconds late
-Hyperthreading disabled seemed to give better performance

And that processor reaches about 3,100MHz during the benchmark? The highest frequency that my laptop's CPU could get while running the benchmark is 3,070MHz and it's highest temp is 80C. I'm just wondering if that extra 100+MHz matters with Dolphin's performance.

RAM: 8GB DDR3
OS: Win 8.1

Sorry for the delay, I saw your post just now. This laptop isn't mine, it's from my uncle and I don't have access to it anymore. The laptop is manufactured by Lenovo and it didn't have a discrete GPU, only the built in Intel HD 4000. The test was run in a fresh Windows 8.1 install (only DirectX runtimes and Intel HD 4000 drivers were installed) and the CPU was running around 3050-3150 MHz. I didn't check the temperatures...

The freshness of that OS probably helped to speed up the emulator a little bit. The best time that I could get with my unit 00:16:51. I'll try to run a benchmark using HD 4000 GPU later. Did the benchmark only uses OpenGL backend?

Yes
