4Ghz Core 2 Duo vs M.A.M.E. 0.120 (benchmark results)
BASS!:
Awesome, and functional approach, thanks a lot for the reply. Ive built tons of machines and done some overclocking, but I like your method better than mine, which is dabble with the fsb and voltage until it wont boot. Then if it starts to die in windows back it off.

I must admit I'm a little hessitant to do this now judging by the explaination there taz lol.
I have an Asus P5KR motherboard, E8400 @ 3Ghz, 2xPC5300 1 GB (which I believe is 667 Mhz).
I have the ASUS overclocking software AISuite installed and I'm staring at the screen. I really can't afford to screw this PC up, just how risky is overclocking? I have reasonable air cooling but I run this PC 24/7. If I overclock can I run it like that all the time or should I only do it for when I need the extra speed?
Here is a screenshot I took of AISuite. What temperatures should I be expecting and what temps should I be worried about?

Taz is a better overclocker than I am, but unless he disagrees I prefer to overclock from the bios, a rule of thumb for me is 25% overclock then I usually just call it good.

DM, I know you have some AMD x2 rigs - have you tried ocing your rigs, and do they do well with mame? I have a 4800+ for my mame rig.

Before I started all of the upgrade I went from:
first mame was a
1st: 4000 amd+
2nd : 4600 x2
3rd: 5200 x2
4th: 6600 quad
5th 6850 dual core
To be honest with a lot of wasted money I did not see a difference until I hit the intel dual or quad cores... the chd roms ran about the same on 1,2, & 3
