Hardware for 2012 Mame cabinet
<< < (5/6) > >>
TJCOMBO:
Got the cheaper one... Anything I need to keep in mind regarding?  As long as I am playing the KI and Tekkens then I am a happy camper.
Bender:
Any updates for 2013?

I have no experience building a mini ITX system so this threat was very informative

I'm trying to set up a mini ITX system, It needs to be small, light, and able to play the newer fighters
Any help would be much appreciated
Banacek:
I spent the last year recovering my MAME cabinet PC when it started dying. The problem with using old hardware is that:

1) It can be prone to failure, and
2) It WILL be a pain to replace individual hardware pieces if they die.

I would follow BadMouth's advice and just buy new cheap. I mean, it's so cheap nowadays it's crazy.

Oh, and if you are just playing MAME I would look into grabbing a Linux distro for your cab. Save even more money  ;D

Not to toot my own horn but, Bender, check out this thread: http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,129277.msg1321896.html#msg1321896

That new Noctua heatsink is the key to getting what you want into the smallest realms of mini-ITX, I think.
