I think it all comes down to what game is being used, exemple Shadow hearts is working really nice on software mode.

It is possible to play SOME games in software mode at 50FPS (Kingdom Hearts II is a good example, runs great in software mode), but not GOW2.
I've only achieved 14 FPS in GOW software with 2 Threads and i'm in a core 2 quad 3.0Ghz.

GSDX can use more threads in software mode. With a quad core you can dedicate 3 cores to GSDX. A Dual Core can only support one GSDX thread.
