I want to build a machine that will be connected to my TV and be running at 1080p
It will act as sort of a Gaming/HTPC blend. I will be using it for emulators probably 90% of the time (will be running Hyperspin). And while I'm not a modern PC gamer, I will be using Steam from time to time for PC exclusives. Plus HTPC functionality like watching movies, streaming, etc
With that said, I want Dolphin to be able to run the majority of games at full speed, with 4x internal resolution, and max filter settings. For both Gamecube and Wii.
Something tells me that the build I have above might be overkill, but I'd also like to future proof myself in case i ever want to use this build as my main computer.
Or I can get something like a Alienware X51, which is small, and would probably do what I want.
Not sure where to go, so I'm looking for opinions.
