ammitz lives in Denmark, so no NewEgg for him.... lo siento.
Epyx:
That CPU will work with the Option #1 motherboard...it will even overclock decently from what I have read but either way at stock it will be way faster than the other options...but still $90...ouch that is expensive compared to here (Canada/US)

well that sucks, in that case i have no idea what to suggest..
ammitz:
The way I have understanded it, then MAME isn't demanding much from your CPU?

But what about ePSX, when I want to play Playstation 1 and perhaps 2.

What is the minimun spec you would recommend for playing ePSX v 1.7 ?
Beretta:
dunno about the psx emulator.. but mame IS VERY VERY demanding of the cpu.. it does'nt utilize video cards very much though..

and it does'nt make very good use of multi core processors either..

right now you'ed need roughly a 4ghz system running a 64bit os and mame to play all or almost all games.
