fzero Posted December 27, 2015 Author Share Posted December 27, 2015 No worries of going off-topic, I've got my answer already. I'm going to sell a couple other things and get a better machine. I had the WiiU last year and liked it, I only sold it as needed to get cash quick but did have some fun games. I would say the first game I'd buy now on it would be Mario Maker, with the option to play other people's games too the game would have longevity and I do love Mario games anyway. Clive, your Steam link in signature links to a missing profile btw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fzero Posted December 27, 2015 Author Share Posted December 27, 2015 So selling a couple old things I can push to this PC http://www.dinopc.com/shop/pc/Primal-GS2-196p2453.htm That looks powerful enough for most my Steam games and the emus I want to play. But is that Intel G4400 decent or would it be worth the extra £50 or so for the i3 chip upgrade? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you feel confident enough to purchase parts individually instead of a pre-built? If so I recommend you the pentium g3258. That processor is cheap as hell and if you overclock it it turns into a beast, primarly for emulation. It is dual core only so if you ever want to play a PC title that requires a 4 core as a minimum you will need to use some modified exes, at least that was the case for Far Cry 4 and Dragon Age Inquisition. Here is the link for the processor if you want to check it out. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819117374 Edit: Here is a build that's almost double as powerful for the same price (£535.00=$793 according to Google), The problem is, this build doesn't offer you Windows included... but check it out! https://pcpartpicker.com/guide/xfmPxr/i5-4460-gtx-960-gaming-pc You can replace the 960 for an AMD 380 (more powerful and costs less) but you will need to change the power supply. The CX model is not reliable when pushed to its limit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
