Quote:Im gonna OC it to 4ghz but even then i can't play zelda or mario galaxy on full speed?

Does lowered speed effect it very negatively or will it still be fun and playable?

Zelda will be fine. Mario galaxy will be fine in SOME galaxies but some galaxies will run slow. And games are very unplayable at lower speeds, it's annoying as hell.

GTX 460 not 240.....


@420p

I wouldn't say that at all. For higher settings like 4xSSAA, fractional efb scaling, per-pixel lighting, etc. it will make a huge difference.

Can you recommend a good motion sensor replacement besides candles?

Also, what is a good USB bluetooth dongle to use... will it work with any ? like a microsoft wireless mouse bluetooth dongle or no?

i'm eager to try this out!

It's not a motion sensor. I don't think you understand how this works. The "sensorbar" is not actually a sensorbar. It's just an IR emitter. It emits infrared light and the wiimote tracks its position by using the light as a base point (so if the light is moving to the right that means I must be moving to the left for example). The wiimote uploads its x,y position at regular intervals to the wii using bluetooth. The only reason the "sensorbar" needs to be plugged into the wii is because it draws it;s power from the wii. But their are also IR emitters that run on batteries or an AC outlet. And since candles emit IR light they can be used as well. Either go with candles or buy an aftermarket IR emitter, do you want to plug it into an outlet or use batteries (which will need to be replaced every once and awhile just like with a wireless controller)?

Any bluetooth dongle that supports bluetooth 2.0 should work yes.

Hi, i'm going to buy a new pc and i was wondering if i will be able to play with a decent framerate with this awesome emulator. My specifications are:
CPU intel core i5 661 3,33 ghz
graphic card Nvidia gtx 460 1 ghz
ram 4 gb

Thanks in advance for your reply.
@GZKPT

Yes that should do very well. Nearly all games should run fullspeed even at 1080p.

@Apocalypto

Since I already responded to your PMs their is no reason for me to respond here.
