I'm building the cheapest possible emulator pc to couch play some ps2 and gamecube games. I'm thinking of buying a q6600 CPU off ebay for $5-$10 and starting from there?
thoughts?

I've seen one video on youtube about this and it seemed pretty good. Can't be bothered to look for it right now (on mobile), but the title was kinda click-baity, like "play every single game ever with just $(small amount)" or "the $(whatever) machine that can play every game ever made". It was probably around 20 minutes or so.
PS2 is gonna require a strong PC unfortunately. You'll need a good CPU for dynamic recompilation and a mid tier GPU because the opengl generated by an emulator is inefficient as fuck. Don't buy AMD if you use windows, they have awful opengl drivers on windows.
Hmm, i don't know about that. Pcsx2 is pretty good right now, you can easily run games with a solid framerate with like 10 year old hardware.
>ps2
buy the fat ps2 + pata hdd + network adapter
and softmod it
>gamecube
buy the original backward compatiblle Wii and usb hdd to put games
softmod it
buy crt tv for free

This was true about 10 years ago. With modern hardware, not so much. A Core 2 Quad handles PS2 emulation with little to no issues.
Hmm ok. But what if he wants to run pcsxr-pgxp? That's gonna require a strong PC for 30fps emulation.
I'd buy the consoles if I were you. You will have to deal with compatibility or technical/emulation/framerate issues in some games with old hardware.
Old ps2 and gamecube are pretty much given away, just buy a DVD burner or figure out how to attach HDD for them.
