Hey, i've only just stumbled across Dolphin, simply amazing! I ran Resident Evil (GC) on my Retina Macbook pro and the graphics were stunning (x2), better than some modern games... it ran perfect on my machine as well.
So it got me thinking, i have an old Mac Mini collecting dust, is it worth me trying to run Dolphin on it, the specs are:
Intel Core i5 "Sandy Bridge" 2415m
8GB DDR3 Ram
Intel HD Graphics 3000
I know HD 3000 is nothing special, which is why i'm asking... the Mini needs an OS installing on it and i dont want to waste my time if it's going to be rubbish, if it's worthy, i'm wondering whats the best setup, is OSX sufficient (preferred) or should i go with Windows?
I'll mainly be playing Gamecube games to be honest but wouldn't mind the odd Wii game.
If it's no good, all is not lost i can just hook up the rMBP to TV with HDMI, but it would be much better to have a dedicated box for this, i looked at upgrades on Apples site but the best they offer is HD 4000.
Thoughts?
