There have been major improvements recently in Mame for Core 2 Duo using 64 bit Mame.  You can see benchmarks at the link below for an overclocked C2D.  Mameworld.net has more information regarding the Mame improvements.

I just read through that thread. A lot of good info in there.

My main computer is a e4300 overclocked to 3.0ghz.  I was contemplating whether I wanted to build another cheap rig with a e4500 in it or not.  I don't think that I'm going to as I don't think blitz and gauntlet legends are going to be running smoothly enough at 3.0ghz.  I'm thinking about moving my 3700+ into my cab, and upgrading the OS to XP64.  The money I'll save will go to putting a e6850 into my desktop computer, oc'ing it, and trying out the chd games on it (although I hate playing them with a 360 controller as opposed to my cab sticks :P ).
