Weecade Hardware
« on: May 10, 2012, 08:55:14 am »
Have finally decided after many months to go down the Weecade route but am wondering what the fastest Gpu would be? I have already decided to use an i3 as the cpu coupled with 6gb of DDR3 I know alot of you are going to cry Overkill but I'm looking at an all in one solution. Mame, Dreamcast, PS2, and possibly Gamecube.

So any solutions would be great. Thanks in advance

It really depends what you're going for.  Far more games need CPU than GPU.  I've had great success with fanless 40-60 dollar graphics cards versus the big 100-200 dollar ones.

I use this one right now and it runs everything you've mentioned without issues for me on a non i3 (I use Intel G620).
