Hi,
I have been running the emulator for a while now. getting decent performance on most games with a athlon II x2 250 (3GHz) and the integrated Ati 4200 which shares 512mb memory. Currently games such as mario galaxy, mario kart wii and metroid prime suffer getting on average around half speed (~25fps). To compensate i use frameskipping.
Would upgrading to a 5450 help with the frame rates of these games? I picked the 5450 cause I want a lower power and noise GPU for my HTPC. Is there any other more suitable cards u would suggest?
Any help would be great!
Jim
