Whats more important, CPU Speed or amount of RAM?
Hoagie_one:
Got a working 333 k6 that I'm gonna put in a mini-cab im building. Its gonna have 512 ram though. Id like to be able to run a few of the street fighters and some neo geo games.
What do you guys think?

I have 310mb ram and 300mhz. Lots of games don't run and only a few are better since i added an extra 256. I'm planning on upgrading the processor to run neogeo games. Does anyone know what's the max you can upgrade a pII?
Hoagie_one:
I t hought I remember being able to play Samuria showdown 4 with a 300 and 96 MB ram when i had an old computer of mine. of course it took 10 minutes to load and i was playing it with neo rage x, not mame.

I have a PII 300 with 256MB and can play the street fighter games fine, some of the neo-geos are slow, but most are playable.

I'm using a Pentium 200MMX with 160M of ram. Upgrading it from 48M of Ram didn't make much difference in MAME. I think processor speed is more important.
