Converting my cab to mame
Jox43w:
Hey, i picked up a samurai showdown 2 cab a while ago and i want to convert it to mame. I havent used mame for a few years and iv heard hardware requirements have gone up.im not that intrested in the 3d games but i want something powerfull enough to play all the neogeo,cps1 2 and 3, killer instinct mortal combat up to 3, and the street fighter series basicaly all the 2d stuff. Will a e2220 2.4ghz 1mb cash duel core run them above full speed? Thanks for any replys look forward to sticking around

My MAME box is a 2.4ghz P4 (single core) with 1gb of ram. Basically anything Dual Core will run everything you need and more
Malenko:
my mame box is a 2.0 GHz Intel P4 (single core) and it runs all that stuff just fine, KI2 has some sound stutter but I never planned to upgrade the CPU in my cab; so yours should run it peachy keen

Thanks for the quick replys! Dont seem to get many friendly people on other mame boards anymore anyhow thanks i just wanted to be sure i could run those games ill go ahead and order all my parts now cant wait to get stuck in!

You'll want to know the version number that folks are using when you ask this question, although with a current-ish dual core rig, I wouldn't expect many problems.
But, for the sake of completeness, I am running v .9 (it runs everything I want, so I settled on it as standard for my MAME boxes ... until something really cool gets added) on a couple of old 1Ghz-ish rigs and can play everything I want without issue. And then there are folks are running current versions on vastly superior hardware and have trouble.
