3D Game Performance in MAME

<< < (6/6)

RyoriNoTetsujin:
Just to add to the info here:

My mobo doesn't allow for OC or "turbo", so I'm no help there, but my i5-2500K runs Blitz, Gauntlet, SF Rush, Tekken Tag 1, KI2, etc. at 100%+ (including HLSL) at stock 3.3Ghz, stock HD 3000 gpu. (Win7 x64, mame64, mameUI64.)

I can't say with certainty that MAME runs on more than 2 cores, but it certainly appears to! :) Running Blitz in a window while watching CPU Usage in Task Manager seems to hit all 4 cores equally.

MK4's problem is in the emulation.  As of right now, it runs right on the cusp; 96-100% most of the time, some sound stuttering/glitching and the aforementioned graphical garbage. Turn off HLSL and the sound glitches go away, so it's basically 100% playable with the 2500K except for the currently incomplete emulation.

I also just discovered I can now fully run some of the "problematic" PS2 games (Soul Calibur 2, Tekken 5) with the newest version of pcsx2 (I couldn't get SC2 above 40fps in-game no matter how hard I tried with older versions.)  Slightly different case, I know, but the point here is that there's something to be said for improved emulation.
