Hi guys, I have been using a Raspberry Pi with Retropie for my emulation for ages. It’s used for games up to PS1 and it’s fine, but I wanted to upgrade my emulation to play games up to PS3/360. For that I think I need to use a PC right? What’s the recommended spec for that use case?
It’s gonna be used specifically for emulation hooked up on a TV on my basement and with Retrobat or some system like that
I appreciate your inputs.
If you are comfortable with building a pc by yourself, you could try to get an older office pc and put a decent graphics card in there.
Most emulators rely more on CPU power over GPU though, right?
Often times, yes. Doesn’t mean that OP has to get one of the very old models. I was thinking of one from the last few years. The reason to go with an office pc is simply that you get a good starting point for a pc, so it’s probably cheaper than a full custom build, even if the pc isn’t that old yet. Though I also didn’t look at current prices either.
