Hi all,
I know there are a lot of threads on this topic, but have narrowed my P.C choice down to the following 3 systems for a gaming rig and Dolphin emu machine. I am going pre/custom built - rather than self-built, due to inexperience. I'm obviously aiming for maximum Dolphin performace.
The choices I have are:
System 1:From Palicomp - apologies for caps - taken straight fom site.
Processor (CPU): INTEL SANDYBRIDGE Core I5 2500K SKT1155 OVERCLOCKED SPEED = 4.5Ghz Per Core
Motherboard: ASUS P8P67 PRO-B3 With P67 Chipset (NEW B3 VERSION)
3xPCI-E (16x), 2xPCI(1x) & 2xPCI & 32GB RAM Support BlueTooth
Memory: 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 1333MHz Dual Channel Kit
Hard Drive: SEAGATE/HITACHI 1TB SATA2, 7200 RPM
Optical Drive: SONY 24XDVD+/-RW Lightscribe & Dual Layer
Graphics Card: ATI Radeon HD5770 1GB OVERCLOCKED
Direct X11 & Pixel Shader 5 With VGA, DVI & HDMI OutputsCase: COOLERMASTER Elite330 Case & 750W PSU
PSU: 750W
System 2:Chillblast Fusion Mirage - Comes with best warranty!
CPU: 3.3 i5 2500k overclocked to 4.5ghz
Memory: 8gb, 1066mhz DDR3
GPU: Radeon Sapphire HD 6870 1gb
1tb hard disk
System 3: Cyber Power - Compact unit
CPU: Intel Core i5 760 2.8GHZ 8MB Cache LGA1156 - Overclocked to 3.5ghz
MOTHERBOARD: Gigabyte GA-H55N-USB3 Intel H55 Chipset DDR3 Mini-ITX Mainboard w/ 7.1 HD Audio,MEMORY: 4GB (2x2GB) PC12800 DDR3/1600mhz Dual Channel Memory
VIDEO CARD: NVIDIA GeForce GTX460 1GB 16X PCI Express
Hard Drive: 1TB Samsung Spinpoint F3 SATA-II 3.0Gb/s 16M Cache
System 4: Palincomp again
CPU: 3.3 i5 2500k overclocked to 4.8ghz
Memory: 4gb, 1066mhz DDR3
GPU: Radeon HD 6950 2gb
1tb hard disk
I'm leaning towards the Sandybridge powered machines, but wondered if anyone might add their 2 cents into the mix.
Cheers for your time.
