Fellows, What about working with this PC:

Processor: 2.1 GHtz, Celeron D
Ram: 512 MB DDR
Gfx Accelerator: ATI Radeon 9600 XT , 256 Mb

Hope you say "YES" Sad
If your processor supports SSE2 then it's possible (which I believe most Celeron D's support up to SSE3). However since Celeron D's aren't Dual Core, games will run VERY slowly at only 2.1 Ghz to the point they will essentially be unplayable. So, realistically, I'd say no it's really not possible because of the extreme slowness you'd experience.

they are dual-cores Smile, but it will still be slow Undecided
Really? Ummmm, I just did some research and it was stated that it wasn't Dual Core

Just a few quick links I pulled up in a few seconds...

There were many others, but I didn't want to paste them all
Basically it lools like Pentium D's are dual core, but Celeron D's are not

oh wait right "Celeron D", misread it for "Pentium D" Tongue, yea they're only single-core Big Grin
i use a p4 3.0Ghz but im getting a new PC (see specs) and melee is half speed or less on the p4 so i dont think ull get good speed Sad .

Yure16

But if I use the DolphinIL?
idk my graphics card was really horrible, it couldnt handle opengl or anything so if you have a decent card you should probs be able to play at fair speed.
yeah,
no dual-core + no support opengl= speed failure~!
it had HT idk if it is supported by the emu or not.... but still horrible speeds
