Intel Single Board Computer performance

[degasus]

I'd recormends a skylake over haswell. The improved performance over needed power is very worth in those small cases. But Try to not use an ultra low voltage CPU. They are easy to cool, but so they haven't enough power. 35W+ is required. More is better...

I found some potential matches but the Wattage may just be too low on such a highly embedded system.

These are low voltage:

These are a bit more promising:

You can preorder latest Intel gaming NUC now
It's very powerful , more like desktop replacement NUC (i7 6770HQ @ 3.5GHz 4 cores 8 threads with Iris Pro 580) but it's not cheap ($650)
And of course , if you don't mind Intel's well-known "bad driver"...

Spoiler: (Show Spoiler)

You will have graphic issues in some demanding Wii/GC games and PC games . You will also have no support from Cemu (Wii U Emulator)

For gaming , I would get Nvidia/AMD GPU instead of Intel iGPU . That's why , I recommended the Alienware Alpha in the first place

The bad driver isn't really an issue if you stick with Windows or Linux. It's only a PITA in OS X.

The Alienware Alpha is a really good deal though.

[admin89]

I don't know the problem still exists or not but my main OS is Windows
I got black screen ingame (not the menu / intro) when I tried to run Samurai Warriors 3 on Intel HD 4600 (i5 4300M) . Nvidia GPU has no issue though

[Helios]

uh.... You should post that issue on the tracker

[admin89]

Doesn't matter ...Dolphin is not at fault here . Most games work fine on Intel iGPU and that should be enough IMO
Gamer doesn't game on iGPU anyway

[RoyYang]

This is probably your best shot that isn't super expensive.(i7-4770R Intel Iris Pro 5200)
They're honestly all pretty shitty. What sort of system are you looking to build that you need to use a single board computer?
