Looking for input setting up emulation machine
The OS you probably want is Batocera. I have a couple external SSDs that I use to run it on my VCSs, and they're great. It's definitely an easier setup than Windows with Launchbox, and you don't have to deal with licensing, forced updates, and all the other Windows garbage.

So I had an Arcade1UP Partycade modded with 12,000 games. I have no clue how to use this. I can only play a few games. I hope someone knows how to use this?!?
This subreddit is for the completely free and open-source distribution that you would find at https://batocera.org/ which comes with absolutely no copyrighted ROMs(games). You will only get support here for that and that alone. Unfortunately if you bought a preconfigured system ("unofficial image"), your issues are with the people who sold it to you. Nobody here can help you with anything outside the scope of the official release of Batocera. Which does have thorough documentation; https://wiki.batocera.org/

MiSTer vs Super Nt for my needs?
Alternatively, since you just built a nice PC, you can take the free options and just software emulate classic systems and run MAME. If you don't have time to set much up, look into a Batocera boot drive https://batocera.org/

Can someone explain how runahead works?
It wasn't originally developed for BSNES. It seems to go as far back as 2018 with a patch by Nitsuja for a TAS geared Gens fork then submitted to RA by Dwedit in 2018

- [question] Anyone know to how to get rid of the mouse cursor in DOSbox-pure? Yes, I've tried f11 mouse toggle. Normally in pc/mac to fix this, I would go into Full screen mode, and it would hide the mouse cursor. I'm using a firestick on my TV in this picture instead. Can the arrow be hidden?
