It depends what you call emulator : - 8bits : perfect & smooth - 16 bits : perfect & smooth - Arcade : perfect & smooth - PCSX perfect & smooth - N64 perfect & smooth Only PCSX2 & some Dolphin games are not smooth with my computer. I thought that 2 cores & 4 threads at 2.4 - 2.6 GHz were enough to play most of the emulators. But I can understand that I shall think about a more up-to-date computer.

My desktop specs are
Intel Q9550 at 2.8 GHZ 6gb DDR2 RAM AMD RX550 Obviously the CPU is an issue but how much? New: Dell Inspiron 15 7580 | Intel i7-8565U @ 1.8 GHz | 16 GB DDR4 RAM | GeForce MX150 2 GB Old: Lenovo IdeaPad Z510 | Intel i7-4702MQ @ 2.2 GHz | 6 GB DDR3 RAM | GeForce GT 740M 1 GB

Edit Reason: adding in some build advice

Your system is fairly well balanced for native computer games which lean more heavily on GPU performance over CPU and your GPU is right in the range to take the most advantage of your aging CPU while not being a waste of money by being too bottle-necked. Unfortunately most emulators flip that idea on it's head and need far more CPU power over GPU might (depending on how much visual enhancements you also want). Build advice Unfortunately the 775 platform is really not going to give you many good upgrade options for your CPU (for PCSX2) so saving your motherboard (and most likely your DDR2 ram) is probably not going to happen. A used Core i5/i7 from Haswell and up at as close to 4GHz is a good starting point. Or the Kaby Lake line of Pentium (G4560) would also be a great new choice. The pentium or a nice used i5/i7 would probably pair nicely with your RX550 as well expanding the amount of newer pc titles that would run with improved settings.

Thanks for the reply, I actually haven't bought the GPU just yet but its going for £60 and I am strongly considering it. Good to hear though that I can still do some PC gaming with it.

It depends what you call emulator : 2.4-2.6 ghz ? are you sure ? it says 1.3 Ghz here : https://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu.php?cpu...40+1.30GHz&id=1944 about what you said. you really think emulators from 8 bits to N64 are as demanding as GC/WII/PS2 ? I mean, compare original hardware cpu's speed to your PC's, and how your cpu is used during emulation. you'll understand what i mean when I say emulation is mostly cpu demanding, whatever original hardware you emulate. it's about a 1000% ratio
