It won't use anywhere near that many threads. I maybe wrong and I hope someone corrects me, but a quad core 8 thread is more than you need right now. Who knows in the future of the emulation. The more threads you have CAN help a game though most the time is hinders games due to the timings associated with each thread. Work is spread more though more areas of error.
Emulation is more concerned about STP (Single Threaded Performance) then how many cores you have. Though with PS3 and Wii 4 core is recommended due to the system they are emulating. That CPU has the STP of a AMD FX 8350. So not great for emulation. You will get by, though don't expect awesome results. Video Card just have to be vulkan compatible honestly. Not many games require an awesome video card. I was running a 760 for a long time due to emulation not needing much actual GPU horsepower.
I hope this answers your question.
