P4 v's AMD
langdoguk:
Hi there , I'm getting my parts together for my soon to be cab , I bought a P4 2GZ and an ASUS board ,which I thought would be fine for most games (not bothered about chd's) , would I be better getting maybe an amd 64 Athlon 3400+ , I plan to run Mame , and hopefully Daphne + N64.
A few people have said AMD's are better for games than a P4 , I just don't have a clue about all the technical stuff :dunno,
Will my P4 do the trick for me or do I have to save up and buy a better cpu?
cheers :cheers:

Brand makes pretty much zero difference. It either has the horsepower or it does not.

This is true. You'll find a lot of people will tell you to go with AMD just because they like to think that AMD somehow performs better; but the truth is that either will do just fine. And yes, I've done comparison tests.

thanks , should I be able to run Daphne and N64 with my P4 2Gz then?

Not sure about Daphne, but N64 runs perfectly on my Athlon 1800.
