How fast does my PC need to be? Gauntlet DL
mamerJ:
I'm trying to use a 1.5 with 768 ram with Mame32, Gauntlet Dark Legacy will barely moves, Area 51 is sluggish.
Lilwolf:
It doesn't run on any hardware that exists... even close... they think 10-15ghz.
There is a chance it will never happen since multi-cores don't help mame at all... and both intel and amd are moving to more cores instead of faster clock speed.
zaphod:
Run an older version of Mame for Area 51. My AMD1600+ running Mame.62 has no problem with Area 51 at all.
Don't know anything about GDL, though.
Sinner:
I was running MAME.88 on a Centrino 1.7MHz, and I had no problems with it...I'm not sure how it would compare to a desktop of the same CPU speed, but I assume it's slower...I know there was an occasional lag, when I used the laptop on the battery, but I just assumed it was the machine being stepped down do to power saving...
Oh, it has 1GB of RAM...
