Alienware Alpha Barebone Gaming PC
You can buy a used i7 version for $800 or buy used i5 version for $635 . It's as small as your palm yet pack a good punch (GTX 860M) . A Certain Dolphin user bought it and told us that it's pretty good Plus an IPS LED Frameless monitor for $120 All you have to do is to buy a HDMI cable to connect the monitor to PC Laptop: Mini PC :: 09-14-2015, 01:12 PM
In order of what I recommend from most to least:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as...6883230073 (Intel's Skylake 6th gen CPU, with an overclock-able board) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as...6883102076 (you can put an overclocked CPU in this one farther down the road if you really wanted to) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as...6883230058 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as...6883230031 09-14-2015, 01:17 PM
You know what, just to make it easier, let me make myself clear:
-I need this for school use, and gaming second -The emulators I plan to use are Dolphin, DraStic, PPSSPP, and possibly Citra & PCSX2 -An all-in-one would be ideal -Price range is between $600-$1000
What do you mean by school? Power points and Microsoft word? Because they'll all run them well. But if you mean like computer modelling or audio/video stuff, then the top one that I listed since it has the strongest CPU to be used in multi-core rendering.
As for emulators, they rely on really fast CPU cores. Thus, once again the 6th Gen Intel pc wins. All-in-ones overheat are are generally not good for gaming. Then go add on a cheap monitor to the first one I had in the list, and tuck the tower under your desk (or behind the monitor)
Why not just buy a gaming laptop . AIO PC is not portable
Most AIO PC in that price range are garbage (either low end GPU or worthless integrated GPU) Laptop: Mini PC :: 09-14-2015, 01:29 PM
Thanks. I'm looking at some gaming laptops under $1000, so wish me good luck.
Sub $1000 gaming capable laptop is here :
