Will (hopefully) be getting a new PC pretty soon and am in need of a little advice. I don't exactly have limitless funds to put towards this, so I'm wondering just what component(s) I should focus on. I'm kind of a hardware noob, (I know what most of the numbers mean, but can't really connect them to practical usage) and since I don't spend much time around newer PCs, I don't know much about what the more current hardware is capable of. I know my current PC is very slow when emulating the 64's framebuffers (unless I use a cheat/fix, like the subscreen fix on Zelda for example) such as those on the Jiggy challenges in Banjo-Tooie, so one thing I'm wondering is if there's hardware capable of emulating these effects at full speed (or is this mainly a emulator bug that needs optimizing to work right?). Well, before I show off my ignorance any more, what kind of things are going to have the biggest influence on these effects (CPU speed, graphics card speed, graphics card memory, system memory, FSB speed, etc)?
