Has anyone done any testing with the Windows-7 64-bit beta? By every account I've been able to find, Windows-7 is less resource intensive and faster than vista, and it seems the fastest emulation so far is using 64-bit vista. So I'm wondering if the smaller OS footprint might translate to larger framerates in emulation? I'm running it now and it's definitely faster on my machine than vista, but my processor isn't fast enough to do anything high-end with emulation, so it's not really worth me testing. --Just wondering. |

I Benchmarked MAMEUI 64 0.129 in both Vista and Windows 7 the other day, Windows 7 scores were a bit mixed, faster for some slower for others, I'd put it down to the fact it's still a beta and the very broken beta Nvidia graphics drivers. I'll post the result later when I get a chance. |

Are there any plans for an Intel i-7 mame compile? Curious to see benchmarks with new chip. |
