| Pentium D vs Anthlon 4400 for MAME |
| << < (9/9) |
| MrMojoZ:
Okay found a system slower than yours to test on: This is the slowest dual core I have access to, any particular game scenario you want me to check before I give it back to the customer? |

As I said before I am new to the whole dual core processor when it comes to MAME. I have a dual core lap top it is a dual 1.6 intel core I believe. While it did very well, it is my main computer. But not only am I new to dual core, but I am ultra new when it comes to Anthlon 64x2. So alot of what I said was out of sheer frustration. It turns out that the tearing effect had to do with my Plasma display. More then likely just improper video drivers because when I went to my LCD display everything was fine. Full speed on just about everything that I have thrown at it. Alot of problems was also coming from the fact that I was using beta MAME which pretty much breaks MAME for Vista around 117u1. So far I am very impressed with 3D games and the Pentium D is history. I am glad I stuck with it...and no restocking fee! ;D I appreciate those that helped/or tried to help. thank you. It got my mind thinking about every possibility. |

On a side note...isn't it funny how I get full speed on an Emachines. Which is worse, me jumping to conclusions about the CPU(though I admitted it could be configurations) or those that would trash a system as some kind of half assed attempt to diagnose a problem Emachines are far from top of the line, but for a MAME computer it is filed under good enough. The computers have always been good producers for me, and I trust the brand just like I do with my HP and Sony Vaio. Good price with good processing power. |
