I think we can have 2 options :
 - keep all cpu options in another dialog and use free space for wakeup 
states and other new options ; so, split between cpu and others

 - have a "simplified" settings window with some cpu settings (the most 
common ones, maybe just the choice of cpu and accuracy) and some other 
options ; and then have an advanced settings, with cpu related settings 
(24/32 bit addressing, maybe cache or not) and some video settings 
(wakeup states for example) ; so, split between common/simple options 
and advanced options.

Maybe the 2nd way would be clearer and less confusing for average users, 
but I have no string opinion, both have pros and cons.
