Can any mini-itx boards handle N64 emulation?
« on: January 08, 2004, 12:44:40 pm »
I think this is a pretty self-explanatory topic. I wanna build a console emulator with a mini-itx form factor, but I wanna know if it can support N64 emulation or just the older stuff.

Sure but they are only in shuttles at the time.  Or else your stuck with the vias that really stuck at 3d

The shuttle boards can do anything a regular pc can. Except you have to buy it with a case

Well those shuttles aren't true mini-itx, are they? I thought they were micro-atx. Anyways, I'm talking about the VIA boards. Those Shuttles are really expensive (or at least too expensive for me).   :-\

You could get the 1GHz board and a PCI video card.  That would probably handel it.  You may want to use a PCI riser card if you are going for a low profile setup.
What is it you are trying to do?

Unless you can add a 3d card to those mobo's, I would say go with micro-atx instead.

I just don't know if you'll have enough power for n64 emulation--especially without a 3d card.
