Which processor to choose?
12/01/13 02:41 AM


Hello all,

Please forgive me in advance for the stupid question. I am getting a laptop this December. I want to make sure I get the best laptop for my budget. MAME is my main focal point. There are 2 that I have my eye on. Both are 4th gen I7, and both have 8gb of ram. One has a native 2.4gb with turbo boost to 3.4gb. One is 3.2gb with turbo boost to 3.4gb. Now my question is this: would I notice any performance differences with MAME in regards to taxing games like Ridge Racer for example? Since they both have turbo boost to 3.4, theoretically there would be no difference since MAME would 'push' both computers to 3.4gb, right? Or am I wrong and should I go for the 3.2gb? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time.
