I think ya should use as much horsepower as you can get. BUT I also don't think you need the extra cashe that PII & PIII processors have. So I use a Celeron 400 mhz in my cabinet. I got it for like $120 3 months ago and they are like $65 now. Plus there are faster ones available now. If you are just gunna use it for emulation, save some money and get a faster celeron processor. I have not had any problems with running stuff on mine. (aside from MKII and stuff that runs crappy anyway) Just my .02
: I'm in need of A deadicated computer for my cabinet! As of today, I have been draging A p3 in and out of the cab. I'm wanting to not over spend and get more computer than I need. Are save A buck and get something that won't run emulation well. Cabinets mainly used for mame and neoragex. It would seem that neogeo emu would take a lot more horsepower than most other emu? I can't seem to find system requirements for neogeo and other types of emulation?
: Thanks for any help, Jim M
