Citra is going to be much like PCSX2/Dolphin where its the IPC that counts more than Raw Speed, (IPC=Instructions per ClockCycle) and for AMD Users you will ALWAYS be behind the Curve on that.
I think you are not a pc gaming player as well as an emulator fans.Are you sure AMD processor worse than intel core processor in running citra/games on pc ? As what we know,AMD is more suitable for gaming as compared to intel CPU,people choose intel just bcoz not only they want to play video game but they want to use in office as well,but those who buy gaming pc (like cyber cafe owner) ,i am sure they will build a PC with AMD CPU and graphic card .Then,the so called "gaming pc" for intel usually equiped with 16gb ram memory and i7 intel core CPU ,of course pc with this spec is better than AMD CPU pc right since the AMD do not use 16gb ram and the best AMD CPU,so,my question,are you sure the best AMD processor is worse than the best Intel core processor for gaming purpose?citra emulator is part of gaming right?And most important,as shown in video before,most of the 3ds games running on latest chinese citra build not always reach 60 fps in every part on the game and the FPS is not stable on intel core's good spec pc like i7 CPU.On the other hand,AMD CPU although have low FPS compared to the i7 intel core ,but citra have more stable FPS whenever running on AMD processor pc,by the time the official citra stable version 1 release,i don't think the intel core can run the citra 3ds game as smooth as AMD CPU ,unless you spend thousand dollar to upgrade you intel pc.
