Running a PIII

Actually, RayB, I think I don't quite understood, or understand still, what you said there. But it did help me some, anyway.

blueznl:

P3-800 with GeForce256 did run Mame 0.8x (forgot the version) reasonably, though not stellar results, so nothing too fancy  :-\


shorthair:

No, I wouldn't think so, but a little better than what I've heard of, generally, of PIII's. I don't have the knowledge and expertise to do much more than combine components and such, so I have no idea how some do some of things I've read. I just wanted to show what I'd gotten and see if there was a little more.

vidmouse:

I'm currently running a 300Mhz PII with 512MB RAM and 32MB ATI card... can only get up to about MAME v.69 before it slows too much.

Am considering getting a 700-900Mhz PIII for this same rig,
do you think it would get me up to MAME v.8x with decent speed?


shorthair:

As has been said here and Mameworld, it depends on the games you're playing. If you're playing anything above '83...or '85...on that PII, I wouldn't know how you're doing it. The folks in software, and those at Mameworld could give you a hand.
