Hey all,
I am looking to build/refurbish a machine to use for emulation. I want to optimize this build for Dolphin (and maybe PCSX2) but I am trying to do this on a budget. I am mostly looking to play a lot of local multiplayer GC/Wii games especially:
All of the Mario Parties
Mario Kart Wii
Mario Kart Double Dash
Smash Brothers Melee
Smash Brothers Brawl
I am looking at the following parts (paired with Windows 7 or Ubuntu Linux):
AMD FX-4350
8 GB of DDR3 ram
GeForce GTX 750 Ti
I am looking to run this on a 42" HD TV without noticeable lag or audio disruptions. Is this unrealistic expectations for this hardware? If so what would a barebones buld for those game look like?
