Hey I'm looking into getting into some Dolphin Gaming .

I'm really just looking to play Don King Boxing


Maybe I'll develop my own boxing game for the Emulator who knows.


Could this laptop be one 1 ?


She's really cheap, not that cute but I'm sure she'll grow on me

I'm going to guess no, that's an old mobile Sandy-Bridge i7, which isn't super fast. If you get a laptop, we recommend at least getting one that has a 4th Gen Intel i-Series CPU that end in -H or -M, not -U or -Y

Thank You for sharing that, I wasn't aware that the i7 here was old. Thank You for explaining that .

Will this Mac Mini work and if this one won't work which on will ?
That is the same generation as the other one (and weaker as far as I can tell)
It would help to have a price range and if it needs to be a laptop. Also if it can be a desktop we should know if you can build it.
Avoid any Macs with the Intel HD 3000. Apple, in all their brilliance, can't design a good graphics driver for that iGPU, and thus it is so horribly broken for Dolphin that it went past funny into sad.

Like Crafty said, if you have a budget we can help you find the best system to play Dolphin
Thank You, My budget Max is $400

Used to Refurbished is fine as well.

Laptop or A Mini PC, unfortunately A Desktop is just too big.

Thank You Guys

A quick little build I put together for about $400 that you can make yourself

You are Awesome ! Thank You 
A nice advantage of building that computer is that you can add a graphics card later. I would avoid adding one right now while people who wish to make some random bits of data have an intrinsic value (crypto miners) are artificially inflating the price of GPUs, but a side benefit is when all of their hopes and dreams (and bank accounts and credit scores) come crashing down the used market will be flooded with very cheep used Graphic Cards.

Personally I will probably update my emulation computer's Graphics Card when the RX460-580 range of cards crash into the $30 to $75 range or I will replace the 980 ti in my main rig if a 1080/1080ti gets into the $100-150 range.
