Hi Guys.
Sorry in advanced if i am breaking the rules. I read through the rules and made sure i remembered before i post so here goes:
A little backstory....
I am a Single Dad on a tight budget and was wondering if you folks could help me out. During my college days I loved playing my gamecube and wii games and would love to build a nice little gaming RIG that runs Dolphin at full speed for my daughter. Its not much but i was hoping to get your honest and expert opinion on my build.
The specs for my build are as follows:
CPU: Celeron N3160 (Braswell) or Celeron 3205U (Broadwell)
GPU: inbuilt HD Graphics 400
RAM: 4gb ram
HDD: 64GB SSD
OS: linux - ubuntu
I also read that there are some tweaks i need to do for intel HD graphics - https://www.reddit.com/r/lowendgaming/comments/4dx4fh/how_torun_dolphin_smoothly_on_intel_hd_graphics/ Which i will be applying.
I saw a video that can run dolphin at full speed on a 3205U cpu (https://youtu.be/2Bh8UxdodUY?t=7m36s) and since the N3160 seems faster on CPUBoss.com will this be theoretically a better choice for me?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I will post my findings after i build the pc.
Thanks guys
