Did you run version 1.6 or version 1.2?
Diet_Pepsi:
Not sure -- I will check it out tonight.
DillonFoulds:
If I'm not mistaken...
gauntleg = 1.6
gauntleg12 = 1.2
You can also confirm the version on the title screen (or is it the credits?). It's listed in the bottom left corner of the screen.
Diet_Pepsi:
ok, so I dug out blitz, and here are my results:
blitz (no HT): 192
blitz (HT): 179
7% advantage with HT disabled.
Same settings as yesterday -- i3 560 (Clarkdale) @4.2ghz. I am not using onboard graphics -- I am running an ATI 5570.
With HT disabled I was able to play blitz flawlessly (@100%). My legends version is 1.6 and plays flawlessly (@99.97%) until crash. I don't have version 1.2.
I could push my Clarkdale further but I see no need when GL and blitz runs smooth @4.2ghz (cruise control) with room to spare. I am guessing that a sandy bridge i5@4.2ghz would eat my clarkdale for breakfast.
Can someone please remind me why C2Ds are so highly regarded for running mame?

You guys are costing me money. :) After reading the new additions to this thread and the fact that you got everything up to %100 speed, I decided to finally spend the money on an upgraded CPU, so I bought an i5 2500K, an ASUS z68, 8gb of 1333 RAM, and a 128gb SSD. Wish me luck. Oh, and I swear I plan on building the cabinet now, the monitor was the real thing holding me up (Germany and 200lb crates don't work well), so I found this and bought it:

it was $249, so I couldn't help it, I just hope it is more like a real monitor in shape than a 16:9 TV. Now off to find some black pica vinyl.
