Sadly that will not work, here's my setup so far so you can see.

As you can see, I need a slot for the Wi-Fi card...
Oh by the way, if you need to save money you could get a Radeon 7770 instead of the 260x. They perform pretty much the same. I'd spend less on gpu and more on cpu if you plan to play dolphin.
Sorry, forgot to mention that I am Canadian. Those prices are much higher over here.
Also, what do you mean "pretty much the same"?
I don't know what other games you're playing but GPU is not very important in Dolphin. You can play 1080p with a much weaker card than the one you have selected. Personally I'd buy a good CPU that's future proof because those are much harder to upgrade than GPU is.
I'm not JUST playing Gamecube, I'm going to be playing other high-end games too.
Question. What does the i3 have that THESE CPUs http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/parts/cpu/#xcx=0&sort=a7&C=2&Z=3000,4700 don't have?
All of these are dual-core and over 3GHz, so what makes the i3 so special? My main gripe is that the CPU is expensive, which is okay, but it uses a different socket, so the MOTHERBOARD is expensive too! God damn it!
