Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

Hi
I want to buy cpu
Just for dolphin
If cpu i3 4130 or g3420
I want to play the game donky kong contry on frame 60?

If I were u I'd spare some more money and get an i5-4670k and a Z87 Motherboard and overclock it to 4.00GHz. If you might play Wii Games in the near future.

i5-3570k goes with z77/67

i5-4670k goes with z87

More or less a good performance, but don´t expect full speed on average-to-heavy weight games.

@faraj

Why did you PM me the same question you asked in this thread?

Same here.
If you're constrained by a budget, and can't afford a stronger motherboard/CPU combo, go with the i3 4130. It has stronger single core speeds, is clocked higher, and has hyper-threading which can take background tasks off of the cores being used for Dolphin.

If you absolutely need a new computer now, that's my advice. However, if it's not absolutely needed, wait a little bit, save up some more money, and get an i5 4670k with a z87 motherboard

Thank you friend
