Thread: Girl Noob in need.

    Default Girl Noob in need.

    I was recently given a new laptop and i'm really interested in console emulation. At the moment i'm using ZSNES and Fusion. I was wondering if anyone could give me some advice on other emulators i might be able to run on my system i.e playstation, saturn, gamecube emulators etc. I realize my laptop isn't that powerful but i would really appreciate any ideas.

    Just click on the console and pick the top rated emulator.

    But i can't tell what emulators my laptop can handle. I'm new to all this and don't really understand all the tech speak when it comes to minimum specifications etc.

    Ar you just trying to be modest? That is quite a fast system. Aside from the intel video its going to run just about anything pre gamecube. Ii may even haled gamecube quite well.

    Lol, no not at all. A friend at work said i'd have no chance running anything above SNES, Megadrive (Genesis) emulation. Do you think it would be able to run Playstation/N64 ok?

    I ran the psx and n64 emulators on a 550 celeron back in the day. Granted I had a nvidia card but I'm sure that intel will do the job. Most emulators back then didn't require much from the video card anyways. PSX and n64 were the first to truly take advantage of it. Why not give it a try? I dont see why it would not run well.

    Try Project64 then. It's a emulator for Nintendo 64.
