I am new android developer, I am currently using API-15 android image ARM EABI v7 I was looking android sdk manager that there is another Intel x86 image for android API level 15

My machine is Intel Core i5 - 8GB RAM + Radeon 2GB dedicated graphics card

But my emulator takes alot of cpu .. When I run the emulator, the cpu fan throws alot of heat and constantly runs, cpu level for one of the cores goes pretty high.

Will using an x86 Image for android improve performance ? Can I make it use the dedicated graphics gpu as well to improve efficiency ?

Thanks,

android android-emulator
