the time came for me to upgrade my pc. i have a laptop 1.5ghz CELERON lol so i can't really run too much.
anyway, my bro has a nice laptop that can run pcsx2 (lucky i somehow round out about the project!) and now i'm kinda addicted to it since my ps2 broke last month.
since i'm building a new pc cuz i'm broke/cant find anything to my liking that isn't over my budget, i decided to keep pcsx2 in mind when building.
i'm getting an e8400 3ghz core 2 duo, 4 gig ram system. the only part i haven't picked out yet is the video card. should i get an 8800gt or go one tier up? would it matter too much for this program? from what i heard its mostly cpu intensive, but also a good video card is needed, and overkill may not really help too much.
