Is my machine good enough to run the original Metroid Prime?
Pentium D 3.2 ghz
1 gig RAM
Geforce 9500 GT 512
Ubuntu 9.04
Dolphin compiled from latest SVN
I know my machine is on the weak side, so I'm not expecting 720p awesomeness, but would it be playable?
Sorry if I posted this in the wrong spot/posted a million times; the help forum linked in the rules appeared to be dead (well, at least no posts in the last 3 months).
idk if your ram would be able to play it... but you could just give it a try...i just finished it and it decided to crash...3 times in a row at the same exact spot...says something bout a tlb error or sumthing but yea..lol
Im sure Daco will be excited by your CPU ,Dolphin wont ! ^^
abfab126 is right, Pentium D are crap, even if you overclock them to 4 Ghz^^
That won't give you high fps...

Afaik the Resolution is not so important in dolphin on most systems. I don't even get one lame fps when setting down the resolution to native. So you may easily get 720p, but actually not awesomeness because of the speed.
I didnt say it s crap , but depending on where you live (south of france for me ) you can mostly fry an egg on this 3.2PentiumDs !

By saying "half-speed" does that mean unplayable? Mostly, I'm just trying to figure out if it's worth my time to go through the process of installing the homebrew channel and making archival copies of my games.
OK YOUR PROC IS ...great ... AND YOUR MONITORS ARE ... nice !
Just kidding + myself bought a Pentium 920D like 2 weeks before CDuo came out ^^ ( 3 years ago ) , so everybody can make mistake ^^(lol again )
