Need Help Putting Together an Emulation PC

Hello all!

I am new to Dolphin but have used emulators in the past. I want to set up a super budget friendly dedicated HTPC to use for Emulation, mainly GameCube, Wii and Arcade games. I don’t want to spend a lot, a couple hundred (under 500). My goal would be to be able to play most GC and Wii games at 4K (60fps if possible) but would be completely fine with a well performing high detailed 1080p or 1440p. I would like the PC to be a smaller form factor like a Micro ATX or Mini ITX. My original plan was the below:

i3-9100F
H310 Mini ITX mobo
Gtx 1070



Is this overkill for what I’m looking to do or is it not enough?

Lastly I have a spare Dell Optiplex with an i7-4790. However it’s a small form factor pc and I would need a low profile GPU. The best low profile GPU available is the GTX 1650. Is this worth trying?

Any help and suggestions are greatly appreciated!!
