I got mine running well with an 866MHz PIII. The video card is a 3-yr old Matrox G400. It really does work quite well.

Well despite what some people say, I think Street Fighter EX2 is a great game. Nobody can argue that Rival Schools is a really great game, though. Soul Edge would be better if the sound worked. I love that game too. It seems most of the Zinc games are fighters. That's just the nature of 3D games, I suppose.

There are a couple games in Japanese that I couldn't quite figure out, but one puzzle game (forget the name) was pretty fun and not too hard to get.

We actually had a SFEX2 machine on campus where I go to college. They took it out, though. The Marvel vs Capcom was making more money than it or something. I like the way you can link super moves if your bar is up at 2 or 3.
