I know I might be asking for an "unicorn" machine here... but I am looking for an always-on pc which can also run Dolphin. I am looking to play Gamecube games, games have to be playable but I am not expecting to run HD graphics packs or anything.
Initially I was looking at an ASRock J3455-ITX motherboard with the Intel Celeron J3455 Apollo Lake CPU since the main function of the device will be running 4K video. However for running Dolphin this is probably not going to work at all...
Currently I am looking at a combination of a NVIDIA GTX 1030 (low TDP) and an Intel i3-7100T or
Pentium G4560 CPU.
- Is the GTX 1030 enough to run Dolphin?
- I've heard good things about the G4560 and emulation however are there more energy efficient alternatives?
Do more people here have experience with building an always-on pc which can run Dolphin? I am less concerned with the initial cost then with the cost of running the device...
Thanks!
