    Hey all,

    I'm a long time MP user, but this particular project isn't related to MP. However, I wanted to go ahead and share. Enjoy!

    Its a shame ripping those good old electronics out of the SNES and put some modern dirt in it :-D

    Yeah - if I would have used a Core i5 or i7, I doubt I would have been able to properly cool the proc in such a small enclosure. Plus I don't need a powerhouse of a computer. Thanks for the kudos.

    Interesting project, I like it.

    But why did you use i3? it appears a bit overkill for just SNES emulator.

    If you watch Part 1 I explain that. Basically, it's for Hyperspin, the front-end menu. The Core i3 barely managed to run it with smooth framerates, and I had to disable some of its features to get it running smoothly.

    I am running a Xubuntu machine as a server with all my movies and series on it, I run a VirtualBox VM with Windows 10 installed on the virtual machine and MP1 client installed on that. MP runs fine on the VM but I no longer have a tv tuner to test if passthrough is possible. I don't think it would work anyway.
