Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

250GB should be fine as long as you install the games to an HDD.

Including other emulators and steam games

It will depend on the Steam games since an SSD will reduce load times in quite a lot of modern AAA games.  If you want to have a lot of those types of games installed at one time (for various reasons: bandwidth limits, you switch between games often before completing one, you play a lot of multiplayer games) then a larger SSD would be a good idea.  If you mainly have smaller games that don't really have load time issues then the HDD will cost less and give you more capacity at the same time.

How would this computer do?
Intel Core i5 7600k
GTX 1060 6gb
8GB RAM
2TB HDD
500gb ssd

Would this play most games? Dolphin and steam

Intel I5 7600k 4.6 GHz
7270 MOBO
GTX 1060 6 GB
16 GB RAM

That is about 150 pounds too expensive compared to if you build it yourself, it would cost [color=#252835]£1218.92[/color]: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/C6Wf6X
Have you also considered going for a i7 7700K without liquid cooling, that is even cheaper: [color=#252835]£1195.45[/color], it has a higher base clock (4.2GHz vs. 3.8GHz of the i5 7600K) and you could still overclock in the future? https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/mDWf6X This has also the added benefit of having Hyperthreading (so you have 4cores/8threads) which might benefit PC-gaming (and certainly rendering and streaming)

Note1: I have added a Windows 10 x64 Home license as well, so if you have one you can save another 100 pounds
Note2: I have also added a nice case (the one I own as well  ) and a good powersupply, you might be able to save or add a few pounds on different components.
Note3: for the 7700k I added a reasonably priced CPU-heatsink (it doesn't ship with a stock cooler) which will give you a little bit of headroom to overclock as well, it is of course totally up to you to see what HS you would like and you could add a few bucks for a bigger (maybe more silent) one or you add the liquid cooling and be at about the same price you were going to pay for the i5 with the added benefit of having an i7....

Wouldn't the following be a higher-quality unit that's actually cheaper?:
be quiet! - Pure Power 10 CM 500W 80+ Silver

There's also a modular version available for £10 extra:
be quiet! - Pure Power 10 CM 500W 80+ Silver Semi-Modular


Wattage isn't everything when it comes to the quality of power supplies (compare: Pure power 10 to Strider Essential Bronze).

But even then, 500w is more than enough for a 7700K + 1060 considering that an i7-7820x + 1080Ti stays below 400w, and even an i7-7820x + Vega 64 stays below 500w.

I dont really want to build a computer, what do you think would be the best computer with a budget of £1500?

Id like 500gb SSD and 3tb HDD with it

I have an i7 7700k
16 GB RAM
GTX 1060 6GB
500GB SSD
4TB HDD

What should i install on my SSD and My HDD
For general use, applications, games and emulation

I have my OS and videos I record on my SSD and my games on my HDD.
