Fastest PC

Jollywest:
Which ever spec you go for I would definitely recommend Compiling your own version of MAME and using a 64-bit OS with a 64-bit version of MAME, for increased performance.

Here is a link for compiling your own MAME version >  MAME COMPILER 64

JODY:
I second using a 64 bit OS (e.g. Windows 7 64 bit) and a 64 bit version of Mame.  I have not compiled my own but found that MameUI64 (one 64 bit version) is much faster than a 32 bit version on my Windows 7 HTPC.  Games that were not very playable in the 32 bit version were very playable using the 64 bit version.

How about this question,

what's the cheapest solution to getting most mame games to run well?

an overclocked i5?

Turnarcades:
Man, I've been off the forum since Christmas and return to this same question?

This will never be answered and the closest answers have been given a million times already. I've given a 200-word brief on 3 specs and what they can achieve loads of times; check my past posts if you're looking for a quick answer.

The reason it's not worth starting these threads is the benchmark and consideration factors change daily; almost as quick as the thread does.

Donkbaca:
Depends on what you want to play. I am running a p4 3.0ghz and there are only like 5 games, maybe, that I can't play that I would want to
