I would think it would have to be updated eventually.  Most of the MB don't have AGP, so what are we supposed to do in a year or two?

The point is, what games will you be playing with arcade controls that you need to go over 800x600 AND won't run on a 9200.  No other emus will be bothered by the AVGA chipset.. you can run whatever emus you want with it.

It's just personal preference, so I'm not trying to change your mind... I just don't understand playing newer PC games on arcade cabs.  Any "newer" PC games that would work well on a cab usually have low requirements so the AVGA would be fine.  Any new game that requires 16x12 resolution with an SLI setup is not meatn for a cab anyway IMHO.

Get a PC for hardcore new PC games.. stick with arcadey games and emus on the cab.

Actually, my old 233 is a Dell...

The name sort of states it's purpose. ARCADE vga.
Mike Q's company can sell you  a realll nice card for a realll nice monitor for a realll nice computer to play high end games. Althought, I guess the AVGA is an ATI as well though.
