Does my Mac stand a chance at running GC games?

[Gary10]

Hi all.

I've just found this emulator and couldn't be more excited. I've tried it with my copy of Smash Bros and it runs, at around 80% speed. I've posted a link to my Mac specs further down and was hoping someone could advise me if that's the best I'm going to get or if I should be able to tweak it further. I'm only interested in running GC games.

Here's the specs, but I've got 4gb of ram instead.

Many thanks in advance. Gary.

Ah, many apologies for that. I guess for a start I'd be happy getting Smash Bros running at GC quality, so not HD. Then if I know it's possible I'd be happy to spend many an hour trying everything out myself.

Yeah, your Core 2 Duo @ 2.4 GHz is not perfect, but sufficient. Most games are playable, but don't expect too much: F-Zero GX, Zelda Twilight Princess etc. are heavy games and you won't get many FPS.

And your GPU is sufficient too. It should be able to handle 1.5x IR i think.
