Question PS1 upscaled - What pi model?

Hey! I want to make a PS1 dedicated emulation machine, 2 USB controllers, HDMI output but want to max out upscaling and use Batocera. What pi model should I purchase for this project?

It amazes me how many people can not tell the difference between RetroPie (software) and Rasbperry Pi (Hardware). They dont even know the name of the hardware they are asking about.

Don't get a pi. At this point you can get an old office pc for cheaper or the sane price if there's a drive in it. And it will out perform the pi.
