Hey guys been using dolphin for about 2 weeks now and it seems great (megaman 9 & 10 are kinds slow) as I can play lots of Wii and GC games with no issues. However I have a question. I am trying to find out if the computer I gave my girl will be strong enough to run dolphin well for most wii games.
I built an I7 system back in January of last year and I gave my girl most of the parts from my old computer. I gave her a C2D E6550 (2.33 ghz) 4 gigs of ddr2 667 ram, windows 7 x64, GIGABYTE GA-P35-DS3R mobo and bought her a 500 watt psu.
The only thing she needs is a better gpu, as I put in an old 6200 le they had laying around. They don't use the computer for much but ms office so a super strong gpu is not needed, but I want to know if I get a HD 5450 will dolphin work well with the other specs i mentioned.
Will probably oc the cpu to around 2.6. Thanks in advance for any info. Also, if this thread is not in the right spot or there is a dedicated thread for these kinds of questions please let me know.
