Just wanting to get as many opinions as I can before I buy. Looking for a nice budget system here in Canada and this is what I came up with so far.

This build will be to emulate up to dolphin (windwaker, twilight). And to use as a little htpc for movies/streaming

Edit: updated http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/p/bYXhBm

Would the 6800k bring a much bigger improvement for the $30 price diff?

No case, any suggestions?

Any suggestions on changes that should/could be made?

I appreciate any kind of feedback!

Thanks Smile

I thought it might be. Only problem with going with the Intel is its going to add ~$100 to the build and I'm not 100% sure I want to overclock. Ideally I want it to be pretty low profile under my TV. More as a htpc.

Just did a quick edit of first post.

Was just looking at that as you posted! Haha I think that's the way to go. 6800k would be a better option eh?

Yes , it's clocked higher and it has better iGPU performance . Dolphin will run faster on it
