Hey chaps, want to ask all you WinUAE people out there about min PC spec.

My Hunk-Of-Junk PC is :

Athlon 750MHZ
650MB 133 SD ram
Nvidia G-Force 4 GFX (I have a GF2 also)

Anyone think this will cut it?

What the hell?

My old Athlon 600Mhz with 384meg ram and a TNT2 Gfx (running WinXP PRo) can run the Latest WinUAE far faster than any Amiga I have ever used. Including my PPC system.


Today may well be the last day for my Old 600Mhz Athlon... 5 years of solid stable and reliable service. Tomorrow my Athlon 64 mobo should arrive :-D

Didn't know the PPC was that slow. Because my A1200 without PPC, is much faster than WinUAE on my PIII, 500 MHz.

Athlons excell in emulations for some reason.

Probably something to do with the massivly parallel out-of-order execution units, the branch prediction algorithm and caching scheme that AMD choose to use.

My old Athlon 750 outperformed the Celeron 2400 that I have now, when it comes to pure floating-point performance.

With out wishing to be rude, one should avoid the Celeron like the plague :-(
