Dolphin on Acer Aspire Revo 3610??? - caveman - 03-03-2010

I wonder if anyone tried it out?

I wonder if it would be possible to play some game using lower settings at 720x480 rez?

Intel Atom 330(1.6GHz) - 1MB L2 Cache
2GB DDR2 800
160GB 5400RPM SATA
Graphics Integrated NVIDIA ION Graphics
Audio High-Definition Audio Support
Ethernet Gigabit Ethernet LAN
Wireless Card 802.11b/g/Draft-N Wireless
Power Supply 65W AC Adapter
Keyboard Wireless Keyboard
Mouse Wireless Mouse
OS Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit

I'm thinking about getting one as HTPC box in my livingroom; and to be able to use Dolphin would be a big bonus Big Grin

just one word, "Atom". You can't play anything with a Atom proccessor ( it is a netbook, right ?)

It is actually a nettop...

3610 quick review

Do you mean you "can" or you "can't" play anything? Wink It is only clocked at 1.6Ghz...

Sorry , I mean "can't" Tongue

@ Caveman: Well, at least your living up to your nickname, trying to run Dolphin on that machine Tongue

Seriously though, you can totally forget about any wii game running smoothly on your nettop. I would say a late revision Core 2 Duo or AMD equivalent is the least you need.

Yes, with Scythe Ninja HSF, I used it at 3.2Ghz (but I was getting sporadic BSOD). Lots of people would oc this CPU to 3.4Ghz with the proper air cooling Wink... My in-laws system with stock HSF is running at stable 2.8Ghz.

Performance wise & in benchmarks Intel atom is even worse than some Pentium 4's from 2005. It would not be a good idea to use it for gaming. Because results will be disappointing.


RE: Dolphin on Acer Aspire Revo 3610??? - FloW3184 - 03-04-2010

an atom with 1,6ghz is worse than a tualatin celeron with 1,4ghz!
only if the program you use uses more than 1 core... then MAYBE the atom is A BIT faster... but really only A BIT! ^^
(because of HT)

you cant even watch videos on youtube with that CPU without problems!
(unless you have an ION)
