The extra 2mb of L3 on the 4770K does nothing for Dolphin?

nope!

And if it did it would not be worth the extra money

4670k - $239
4770k - $299
A difference of $60 for 2mb more of L3 cache and hyper threading support. I think it's worth it if Dolphin makes use of more cache.

It doesn't. We've benchmarked them. Clock for clock they perform the same.
