Since we're in the PCSX2 forums you mean the performance in this program? If that's the case then yes, performance might get nearly doubled with a dual core.

However, most of normal PC games won't be much faster on a Pentium D than on a normal Penitum 4 with similar clock rates because they don't take advantage of dual core processors. Also the PD has basically the same architecture as the newest P4 core (Prescott).
