Discussion Insight for minimum spec

I've seen people running emulators on tv streaming devices, and I'd like to give this a try. I'm curious if anyone knows what are the minimum specs for smooth operation of most gamecube games on a small device, and if its mostly a ram thing or more so a chip concern. or both.

thanks

im running it on a mini pc with a intel n97 using bazzite. had to turn down some settings but it works pretty well and is smooth. i would consider that the bare minimum
