[RevPokemon]

I'm looking to emulate dolphin,ps2 and Wii at about 720p with a frame rate of at least 40

Also I hope to play some other games but emulation is my main objective. Also what do you think of this build?

You should be fine running at those rates, but you might want to consider an i7 for better performance, as your audio will be choppy.

What's your budget? If its within $1100, then I have a build for you. It could probably run emulators a little faster.

It has some parts you can add or remove.
Most stuff is on Amazon to take advantage of Amazon Prime.

Well I do consider using an i7 but according to what I've read I heard that upgrading isn't worth the money due to the fact that the difference isn't that major compared to i5 processors. Also my budget is 600 to 700 although I prefer closer to six

Your build should be fine, it can do what your looking for... My build is mainly centered toward PC gaming with emulation on the side...

Also u think now know JD ditch the WiFi network adapter to use an usb adapter

Why the expensive wireless card? That .A is not a typo for .AC by the way. Do not get me wrong, if I never have to see another piece of Belkin junk then I will be thrilled, however I am not really seeing it here, especially not when you can probably slice a bit off that and put it into the PSU (even if it is just a slightly more efficient one), which is fine but I do not like capping off half nice builds with cheap supplies.
Equally is ethernet over powerline not an option?

Otherwise it looks like things will fit together, afraid I did not visit the graphics card charts as part of this though. You have good deals as well by the looks of things, I hope you don't get bitten by shipping or the nonsense that is rebates and about the only thing I might be able to shave a couple of dollars (quite literally just a couple though) is the RAM.

Equally 1TB might be more than you have now but start playing in emulation of PS2 vintage consoles and watch it disappear. Whether you want to dump it into a SSD and live off network or external storage is a different matter though.

I guess I can just use either net its just I'm really not that much of an expert in that area. I may use a 380W Antec Earthwatts as the PSU and it is more mangable without the WiFi adapter. Also for storage I do plan to use the cloud for files ( using moga that offers 50 GB per account all for free as I have used moga for a year or so) and also use external storage

If you're still looking for a build try this
I noticed you use Micro Center so you probably have one nearby if you want to overclock in the future just get a Z97 if not just go with a H97. Asus and ASRock are great brands.
