The only Real Pc game that would ever come close to Dolphin's Max CPU requirements would be Planetside 2. Another reason why i upgraded to this processor Smile

Hahaha, no. There are plenty of PC games that can put your cpu under a high load like dolphin including many that are more demanding on the cpu than PS2. In fact pretty much every multithreaded modern rts falls into this category once you have enough units in a match. Although often the load is not consistent and varies a lot depending on what you're doing. For example BF3 will full load any dual core cpu and get close to full load on a quad core cpu when multiple buildings are collapsing and/or multiple large explosive detonations are going in in the surrounding area. But most of the time your cpu load will be significantly lower.

Well I would say that some pc games do load cpu more then dolphin, because they can use all 4 cores ( or even more )
There are some games which can load quad cpu 100%
