Thanks. Most of the games I want to play are GC games anyway the added Wii games will just be a bonus. I guess I'll have the save Galaxy for the desktop.

Hi,
I'd like to ask if setting up an overclocked e8400 @4GHz is still a good setup for Dolphin since some users note that the first post is outdated? I plan to play my wii games in HD. I don't exactly have the budget for an i7. The main use for the PC would be dolphin, pcsx2, web surfing and burning (and probably fable 3 and diablo 3).

My planned rig:
E8400, Asus p5q turbo, 4GB 1066 MHz HyperX and ATI 5770 * 2 on crossfire.

Currently hardware wise I have:
Pentium Dual Core E5200 overclocked running at 3.50 GHz
Radeon 4670, 512 MB GDDR3
2 GB RAM

What resolution should I expect to get out of that type of a setup? 1080p or is that a stretch? 720p doable?

In Dolphin "Display" Tab set resolution :1024x768 (HD720p) or 1366x768(more than 720p)
1080p and 720p depend on how big your monitor and your rigs is not enough for 1080p.Dolphin resolution must be the same as monitor resolution

You must have it in a single file. Try to dump it in a single iso file. Three files are not suitable for this.

Your rig is perfect for HD playing. A single 5770 is enough for 720p with maybe 4xAA. Your RAM is also of top quality unlike mine 667 MHz...

Answer in short words : Rig is AWESOME!!!
