Set up: Look here
So, I uncheck "Enable Dual Core"? And by the way, will "Lock threads to cores" help me or not?
I mean disable Hyper threading in your bios(when booting windows press "del" or sthing then config) this also have a boost speed effect to core i7 on dolphin because P4,core i3,i5,i7 use hyper threading but the other sides will slower on multitask."Lock thread to core" is useful for CPU have more than 2 core because dolphin only use 2 core to emulate,you don't need to enable that oftion

Before I follow your advice, a few questions:
* Is it safe to disable the hyper-threading?
* Will other programs suffer in their performance when the hyper-threading is off?
* If I ever need to, can I re-enable it?
Ofcourse,you can enable it again whenever you want to.
Do not run other program when running dolphin otherwise losing performance
