The answer is to compromise ... do you really NEED to run every CHD game in existence ?

If you have a tight budget, that's OK, join the club   :)  ... there's plenty of (non CHD) games you'll be able to play well on a cheap PC, as long as you're realistic in your expectations.

For Guantlet Legend and Blitz, you'd be best off just using NullDC and running the Dreamcast versions. That's what I plan to do to run MVC2 and a host of other Naomi-era arcade games, once I can afford to build an adequate dual core computer.

a porsche is economical compared to a lamborghini.  Asking for the most economical way to do something does not imply that I am trying to do anything in any manner.  I also understand that with the many different PC components, there are different ways to do things and a $600 vid card may be overkill with the type of graphics that these games utilize.
