MAME doesn't use any GPU acceleration so any somewhat recent GPU will work (recent being sometime in the last decade or maybe 20 years...).

Yep, anything with decent 2D will work great. That chipset should be fine.

Well I got everything in. I'm installing XP as I type. Overclocking the quad CPU to 3.6ghz. So far so good. Can't wait till I can run mame for first time on it! Formatting a 2 TB drive is taking all day ARGGGGG. At 85% Is there a way to have a LCD with cpu temp so I can keep a eye on it?
