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?
That's cheap. I will keep them in mind when deciding on my next PC when this one dies. A thinkpad with linux to do emulation sounds cool.
