Specs needed to run Dreamcast and PS2 emulation

[Mikebyrne]

Hi Folks,

I'm just wondering if anyone knows what specs are needed to run a Dreamcast and PS2 emulator. I'm looking for the Ram, CPU and if I'd need a graphics card etc

just about any "mid range" pc will run the dreamcast fine. I would not pursue the ps2 just yet - even a quad core and a nvidia 280 card will give you a maximum of 30fps with a lot of drops down to unplayable speeds, and the emulation is not worth the investment just yet!

Even an older athlon64 and a mid range graphics card should be fine for Dreamcast though!

Thanks for the help and advice

I have a never PC, E8500 Dual Core and I am running Dreamcast on it. Looks and works great as well as Naomi. I have yet to mess with PS2 game though so let me know how that works out for you.
