| AMD 3200 still good? |
| << < (3/6) > >> |
| 97thruhiker:
I'm running the 3200 in my mame cabinet on an MSI motherboard with onboard video. Can run almost all games in mame (driving USA and a couple others are a little slow). Nintendo 64 games run well as well as Playstation one games. NewEgg is currently selling the 4000 for around $135. The 4000 with a decent video card should run just about anything being sold new in the stores as well as 95% of the emulated titles. |

I am an AMD dude also... :cheers: I got a Sempron 3000 Socket A / ECS mobo combo for $79 at Fry's over a year ago and I have never had any problems with it for my rig... --- End quote --- Add one more to the AMD camp! I haven't bought an Intel since PIII 500, and haven't regretted it at all. I am currently running a Sempron 3300+ that I picked up for $119 shipped. All I know is that every game I have tried so far works great. I really haven't bothered with the CHD games - maybe in another 10 years I'll check them out... ;D I'll have to check out Driving USA to see how it runs on my system. |

Also an AMD fan, but it seems the new Intel Core 2 Duo are kings of the heap atm.. Great price on the CPU's too! to bad the MB cost more then the CPU's :( As for for plain old gameing you just cant beat the AMDS for price perform right now. But as soon as MB prices drop on the Intel Core 2 Duo boards.... Look out they are pretty impressive. Clok |

Good lord... Where the hell have I been?!? "3000"... "3300"... dual mumbo jumbo... jeez Yeah, I run and AMD also. An AMD Duron 650. And it runs just about enough mame emulation I can handle. (Aside from the CHD games, duh, and a select few others that I don't know of anyone running at 100%.) It helps to have plenty of ram and not alot of background crap running. Guess I've just been happy with what I have. Just spoutin' off.... I'll leave now. ;D |
