Best PC specs to run Hololens emulator and SDK

Looking to buy a new computer, and would like to hear from others who've already experimented with the SDK and emulator, what has been good for you, or wished you had in terms of PC specs for optimum performance.
Thanks

    Hi Rik, I'd be careful with the machine you purchase. I recently purchased the desktop HP 550-149 Pavilion (specs below):

    3.50 GHz 4th generation Intel® Core™ i5-4690 processor
    12GB PC3-12800 DDR3-1600 SDRAM memory
    1TB 7200RPM Serial ATA hard drive
    3.50 GHz 4th generation Intel® Core™ i5-4690 processor
    12GB PC3-12800 DDR3-1600 SDRAM memory
    1TB 7200RPM Serial ATA hard drive
    Graphics: Intel® HD Graphics 4600
    Integrated Bluetooth® 4.0 and Wireless LAN 802.11b/g/n featuring Single-band (2.4Ghz) 1x1 technology

    I had to upgrade the stock network adapter that came as I could not maintain a stable network connection to the internet within the hyperv vm.

    Since upgrading the network adapter, I am now able to maintain a stable internet connection within the vm however I cannot seem to deploy to the emulator.

    I'd be interested to hear what works for other people.

    Thanks
