jw, what happened to the folder for citra with the new bleeding edge updates? trying to get this working with launchbox :P. It doesn't want to recognize the shortcut path under appdata.

Physical gpu is a Must i think, i would definitely advice you to get the rx 480.
Single core CPU clock speed is the number one factor in almost every emulator ever. Gpu is almost never the bottleneck (sometimes it does matter but those are the exception not the rule). So the 6700k will bring in more perf gains than a r480 esp for citra

hello, please forgive me but i have a noob question
i have a laptop with Intel Core i7 (2200Hz) and NVIDIA GefForce GT 640M

does my laptop suffice to play citra? because when i play citra its really laggy while the person on youtube with NVIDIA GT 630 can play citra far smoother than i am. i`m confused what is wrong

1. The specs are okay.
2. Run Citra with High Performance NVIDIA Processor(right click the emulator and go to Run with graphic processor)

True but isnt a GPU still needed, with the opengl3.3 thing going on etc. ? If I remember correctly he said basically great cpu+no gpu, or a bit less cpu +rx 480. So I'd suggest the second option then.

Is there any way to change the countrycode (not language or 3DS region)? I didn't find any way to do it in the settings so I navigated to \citra\app-0.1.56\user\nand\data\00000000000000000000000\sysdata\00010017\0000000\config and have it open in a hex editor but can't find the right offset.

Intel integrated graphics have supported gl3.3 for years now, (gl3.3 standard came out almost 7 years ago now if I remember right!) so for citra and citra alone will it be faster to have the CPU instead of the gpu. Every other game would be better with the gpu. There was talk to lower the go version, but it's not going to happen. The person writing it gave up. So yeah I say get the gpu anyways since no one buys a PC just for citra

Im building a computer just for citra, i dont plan on playing too many other games, i will put in a i7 6700k but no physical gpu, the intel hd 520 integrated graphics have openGL 4.4. Is that good enough for citra?

More than OpenGL 3.3 is okay. Good luck on your custom computer. I wish I had the money and parts to upgrade a decent laptop. But eh, I can wait for that future.
