I redoing my pc's.... i currently have 3 pc's that i am using and i am trying to make sure i use the best for each purpose.... i will list the current way i am setting things up and if anyone has any advise or anything it would be greatly apprecated.
1. gaming/emulation pc... windows 10...i7 3770 cpu, 8gb ram, 1050ti video card... 240gb ssd and multiple external usb 3.0 drives for storage.
2. plex/multimedia server pc... windows 10.....amd fx8300, 8gb ram, 1050ti video card... 240gb ssd and multiple external usb 3.0 drives for storage
3. general use/web surfing pc... ubuntu linux... i7-860, 8gb ram, 750ti video card... 128gb sdd.. with 4tb external usb 3.0 drive for storage..
would the i7-3770 or fx 8300 be best for emulation?... i would like to try ps2 ,ps3 ,wii and wii u emulation... do you think that the cpu could handle that?... gpu??
Any input would be greatly appreciated.. thanks.

I made the usb drive last night.. it worked great... i just had to edit the launchbox.xml to redirect where to look for the files and emulators.... a simple find and replace worked... Thanks for the help..

Thanks for the quick reply.. i have a 256gb usb3.0 flash drive i will try to use... and my gameroom tv does not do movies either... so i'll try to copy from it and change the drive locations for roms and emulators.... thanks,

First of all.. i love the software.. Very awesome.. But i have a question... I have a main setup on my tv in my game room... It is set up works great.... But it is ok (l have a forever license) to make a second installation on a usb flash drive for my laptop.... If so... Is it ok to use a usb 3.0 flash drive... And what size do you think i would need... i just want to emulate Sega cd/turbo graphics Cd and below... Any help would be appreciated...

Oh ok... so no easy way... I've probably gotten about 5000 games/systems set up.. so i think i'll just live with it the way it is.... Thanks for the help.

Hello eveyone..
First off... I want to thank everyone for a great program, great support and everything.... I love my setup... I have it in my gameroom and even streaming to my shield portable... Been able to do most just by reading the forums... My question is this.... Can i change the location where it stores the video files that it downloads?.... i have all of my roms on a external drive and i don't plan on adding any more... i have enough space for the images and such, but not the movies... Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Matt
BEST CPU

the fx8300 is 8 core... 3.3ghz regular, 4.2ghz turbo
the i7-3770 is quad core with hyperthreading... 3.4ghz regular, 3.9ghz turbo...
would the ipc of the intel make up for the more cores and greater speed of the amd?
