3.0 vs. 3.2 ghz for MAME?
<< < (2/2)
SavannahLion:
I'll echo what everyone else here has echoed. When you're in the GHz range, .2GHz increase over 3.0 is less than 7% bump in speed. At the absolute best, you're going to get a 7% bump in performance and that doesn't happen in real world applications.

Well, when I went to go pick up the computer, I found out that it is actually 2.7 ghz dual core, but I got it anyways. So far I am happy with it. I can't play all the Tekken games which is a little disappointing, but I am not sure if that is something that most computers handle or not.

install a PSX emulator and use the console versions of Tekken.

The Cave SH3/CV1000 games added a few months ago then redisabled recently in MAME. Machines above 3.0ghz are pretty much required for them to play at full speed.
