I'm getting a motherboard/cpu combo specifically to run n64 emulation.
Does anyone think that this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813121342 I'm looking at would suffice.

Thanks for any help.

Any modern PC will run PJ64. The system specs for it aren't very high at all.

It will work, but you most likely will hit lag spikes every now and then. Is there a specific reason as to why you're getting an Atom other than power misering?

Yeah I guess it's just cheap and reliable, plus i need something very small to fit in the box I have for the emulator console I'm making.

Well, then it's the right choice. If you can make it a little bigger, building an mATX system instead would be cheaper and significantly more powerful.
