This thing has trouble running anything made past like 2012 and the newer emulators out there totally bust it. I tried recently running citra and it could barely hit 30%. Would switching over to linux lighten the load on the cpu and free it up so I could run more demanding games?

Also how is linux for emulation and gaming in general?

    Your CPU meets the minimum single thread req for pcsx2 so I think it should work (possibly with tweaking).

    Sounds promising!

    How does Dolphin run? You can try the ishiiruka fork which is performance focused

    I'd have to give it a shot.
