Hey guys! So I'm new here. I've been playing around with Dolphin on my laptop computer and it "works" but it slow and laggy with just about any setting above low. I'm wanting to build a computer to run it, but I usually run AMD, so I am new to this Intel setup and with their performance benchmarks. I did some research, but the most I could get out of it was that Intel CPU was the only way to go and that I need a decent amount of ram. Below is a parts list I put together and I just wanted to see if I could get a consensus from the group about how it would run.
CPU: Intel Core i5-6400 2.7GHz Quad-Core Processor
Motherboard: MSI B150I GAMING PRO AC Mini ITX LGA1151 Motherboard
Memory: Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4-2133 Memory
Storage: Sandisk Z400s 128GB 2.5" Solid State Drive
Video Card: Sapphire Radeon R7 370 4GB Nitro Video Card
Case: Fractal Design Node 202 HTPC Case w/450W Power Supply
Total price here for the rig would be around $650 with everything being new, and I am trying to stay under $700.
If you have any changes or recommendations please let me know! Nothing has been purchased yet so I'm game for redoing the setup if it is just total junk.
