Install the extra Intel x86 Emulator Accelator (HAXM) that comes with the Android SDK Manager. After installing it:

enter image description here

You can find it at:

.\android-sdks\extras\intel\Hardware_Accelerated_Execution_Manager\IntelHaxm.exe

enter image description here

And as stated in the image:

Intel HAXM requires an Intel processor with certain hardware features, including Intel vertualization Technology (VT).

Usually, enabling VT is done from BIOS.

Note that the Architecture of Android Processors are of type ARM (RISC) not Intel(CISC) but you can mount large amount of power such larger clock rates and memory to emulate more faster, and finally it wouldn't be relative to power of your PC. Another thing that may be useful for you is that, you can do debugging procedure without closing emulator each time it need to launch. the Emulator will consider changes to test application during debugging.
