Product

Specs:

  • Intel® NM10 Express chipset /w Intel® Atom® D525 (dual-core, 1.8 GHz)

I think the most I can put in there for RAM is 4 GB. (They don't make 8 GB SODIMM do they?)

The Dolphin site is pretty vague about requirements:

  • Windows XP or higher, or Linux, or MacOSX Intel
  • Fast CPU with SSE2.
  • GPU with Pixel Shader 2.0 or greater. Some integrated graphics chips work but it depends on the model (and only with DirectX 9).

I'm trying to make a light-weight quiet little machine for streaming video and playing eumulators, and I'm trying to figure out the minimum requirements I will need to do what I want.

I know I'm not supposed to ask for product recommendations here, so if you could just advise the minimum requirements in terms of CPU, graphics card, and RAM, that'd be helpful.
