Hello there!
I´m a gamer who is looking into getting a new great PC build, specially for emulation. I´ve always loved the GameCube and some of the best Wii games, and I would like to have a great PC which can specially run some of my most loved games, like F-Zero GX, both Metroid Prime, both Super Mario Galaxy, both Super Smash Bros, both Mario Kart, etc. I currently have a normal PC (around 2Ghz) and I can already run dolphin very well on some games, but I would like the new PC to run said games as best as possible, at 1920x1080 and 60fps.
I will play PC games too, and some other emulators from Dolphin and PCSX2 to smaller systems (which don´t have any trouble with my current PC).
Thankfully money is not a problem, but as I rarely change my PC (around 5 years each build) I easily get outdated and I always have trouble getting up to date. I´ve been reading a lot of info from this forum and other sites, and I think I have a good configuration for the new build, but I would like some advice or recommendation. The parts I´ve chosen so far are:
CPU: Intel® Core™ i7-4790K
Motherboard: ASUS Z97-A
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 16GB
OS: Microsoft Windows 7 Professional
DVD Drive (cheap one): LG GH24NSC0
Power Supply: Corsair CS750M
GPU: ASUS GTX960-MOC-2GD5
HDD: Western Digital AV-GP, 2TB, SATAIII
Cooler: Cooler Master Nepton 120XL
Case: Antec VSP 5000
I´m not looking into OC, as this PC should be healthy for the next 5 years.
Questions:
* Do you think these parts are good enough?
* Would you change anything?
* Is the power supply and cooler good enough for the other parts?
* Is the case big enough for this build? Could I get a smaller size without compromising the PC health?
* Any other advice?
Thanks in advance and really sorry for logging and asking this right away...
