Ok, I'm looking to re-do my Mame Arcade machine.
What is the specs that you guys are using to run the roms efficiently?
Right now I'm running a Athlon 3200+ with 1.5 megs of ram. Running GameEx and an AGP of V2 of ATI 9200 ArcadeVGA with a 25" Arcade monitor.
I can't stand the screen tearing anymore so...
I turn on Triple buffering and the tearing goes away, but the sound stutters(on games like MK or NBA Jam etc..). I turn T-Buffering off, and the sound is fine but the tearing is back......Obviously my bottleneck is the CPU and maybe the Graphics card also.
Soooooo I have ordered the Newest ArcadeVGA 3000 with PCIe. So hence I was wondering what YOU guys "computer spec wise" are running to be able to enable T-buffering and to eliminate sound stuttering.
I have looked via the search, but most of those specs are older posts and am looking for specs that are "in the now" so to speak. Any help would be great! Thanks!
Let me know the specs and what OS you are running. Also Is it best to run Win7-64bit and the 64bit version of Mame? Any benifits? or Just stick with the tried and true Windows XP? with Mame 32bit version?
