Amd 6 core VS i5 (Yea I know Mame only uses 2 cores)
redbeard30:
Well I have a minipin cabinet running VP at 1920x1080 with a 3.0 dual core, amd, overclocked to 3.3
98% of 200 tables run great, but to run VP at that resolution requires a vid card with 1 gig of memory, also has to be around a gtx250 or better. But I think desktop tables require a little less specs. I may pickup the microcenter deal myself.

I just picked up an AMD FX6100 6-core @3.3, Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3 mobo and 12gb of DDR3 2000 for $350 for my new MAMEcab.

\ Was that a combo deal from Microcenter?

The dual cores often have much more headroom to overclock.

Nah, picked out separately via Newegg.com.
