docralston Posted January 4, 2017 Posted January 4, 2017 Wow, this is amazing. Can I ask what specs your computer is running, and how much HDD space you need for something like that? 1 Quote
Charco Posted January 4, 2017 Author Posted January 4, 2017 (edited) It's an i5 6600, 16GB RAM, Nvidia GTX 1060, with a 250GB SSD for the OS and a 2TB HDD. I have only used about 1TB of HDD space and doubt I'll add too much more other than some more Gamecube, Saturn, and PS1 games. Edited January 4, 2017 by Charco 1 Quote

Furthermore, how does the Gamecube and PS2 run on that setup? My Gamecube experience is super slow right now, even with low quality settings. I'm dreading the thought of having to migrate my Big Box setup to a new machine, but I don't see any other way to get a better performance. Thanks for the specs. Quote
DOS76 Posted January 4, 2017 Posted January 4, 2017 US PS2 collection is around 4TB and I'm not even sure that it is complete Quote

Yeah I have about 30 PS2 games at the moment. Gamecube runs great with Dolphin on this set up, no issues. Quote

Just to say, I'm running a i5 3570k 16gb ram and a gtx 770, and I can run gamecube/wii and ps2 games at 1080p 60 fps most of the time. Also with regards to migrating your setup, if your roms are in your launchbox folder you can just copy and paste the entire folder. 1 Quote

neil9000 Posted January 4, 2017 Posted January 4, 2017 (edited) As long as EVERYTHING is in your launchbox folder, then yes just copy and paste. Also just to add I have my entire launchbox folder with roms and videos equalling about 1tb on a usb3 hard drive which runs flawlessly and can just be plugged into another pc and work just as well. Edited January 4, 2017 by neil9000 Added usb3 comment. Quote
DOS76 Posted January 4, 2017 Posted January 4, 2017 I run both of those emulators on an i3330 with a gtx 950 8GB of RAM 1 Quote

DOS76 Posted January 4, 2017 Posted January 4, 2017 Yeah I was kind of saying I have a weaker CPU than you and it still works 1 Quote

In my cabinet I'm running an AMD APU A10-5800K (4 x 4.2GHz CPUs - plus Radeon 7660D GPU), 4GB RAM. It was cheap at the time and sounded good when I thought all I'd be doing was MAME through Hyperspin, but I have since branched out and realized I need more. I've heard that processing power is the most important part. Upgrading to 16GB RAM probably won't fix the issue, right? I also obviously need a real graphics card. Quote
