Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

Which games are you planning to play? It should perform very good on most demanding games.

I was planning to play Super Mario Galaxy 2, No More Heroes 2, Sonic Colors, and Wind Waker specifically but I'll be playing a lot more.

Then yeah, I don't have No More Heroes 2, but the others will play at full speed with the correct settings.

You can get a faster PC by Building at a cheaper price

Yeah, you could save up to $200.
And decide exactly what to put in it.
It's not all that hard either.

This costs $920 on my end.

You don't need 16gb of RAM. Overkill.
Honestly, 8gb is overkill as well.
I'd also recommend a 2GB GTX 550ti in this situation if you must have 2GB.
I assume you already have Windows XP/Vista/7?
And a monitor?

I found the parts on tigerdirect so I guess newegg is cheaper. Anyways, I do need the 16gigs of ram. I do heavy video editing and animating and I do video game developing. I won't be using this for strictly dolphin, also gonna play some bf3, crysis 2, etc.

Fair enough.
I'd still recommend building it yourself.
But your money is your money.
