Hardware Cost for building a good pc ?

[Mat37]

That's, what, ~$650 USD? Yeah, that's a pretty good deal

It's more i guess since €1 is $1.23

Oh, I had my conversions backwards, sorry. For a little over $700 that's still ok but not as good a deal

As long as it can run BotW that's okay

That one should do nicely, then

I also wonder if my GPU will be bottlenecking the CPU or are they equilibrated ?

GPU will be a LITTLE on the low side, for sure, but you already have it so I'd recommend holding onto it for the time being. Perhaps consider upgrading when new cards come out around August; you'll have the option of the more efficient newer cards, and the used market may start saturating with more powerful current gen cards as miners update their rigs

Plus you can plan a low end HTPC later on with the 1050ti if you get the itch to build again

Well my PC has an Nvidia GeForce GT 1030
AMD FX 4300 CPU
8GB ram
And that cost me £500
Plus £25 for the keyboard and mouse
Plus £15 for the WiFi adaptor
Plus £20 for an xbox controller
That comes to £560 for the PC and accessories
Most games I tried work at a solid 60fps on high graphics

But I never tested Wii U emulation so I will have to test that before I can recommend for Wii U emulation

Wii U emulation requires a pretty decent GPU. The 1050ti will probably be fine but it'll be a slight bottleneck with the i5

Well the only emulators I used on it are PCSX2 and Xenia and both work really well

I’ll try it next time i’m on my PC (which isn’t now that steam signature thing is slow at loading and thinks i’m online which i’m not)

Changing the GPU that soon won't be possible for me, i might wait at least 1 or 2 years to do so.

The thing for emulation (not only Wii U but every system) is that it requires a CPU with a good IPC, so intel or ryzen CPUs. You cpu will problably be enough for MK8 and other games but for botw you might not get a constant 30fps. I first had brought a 8350 but when i was told for the other pc i said yes cause i know i'll be getting more fps.

That's perfect

GPU : GTX 960 (replaced with a 1050ti i bought before)
RAM : 8GB G.Skill DDR4 2133MHz
Motherboard : MSI H170 Gaming M3
CPU Cooler : Cooler Master Seidon 120V v2 (watercooling)
Storage : 1TB WD HDD + 240GB Kingston SSD
PSU : Cooler Master G750M
Case : Zalman Z11 Neo
