I got a pentium 3 600, and some intel MB, and 256 mb of ram...... with an 8mb rage video card.

Will this run mame games like Metal Slug 2 on mame???

Thanks,

Yup. All Neo Geo games should work fine.

Mortal Kombat 3, on the other hand...

I have a P3 600 with a Geforce3 ti200 and it can run UT2k3.....I think that one will be able to handle mame ;).

Who cares about cs and q3, I want to use this as a MAME machine and MAME only, It will mainly run metal slug and other neo geo games, i know it can handle games like pacman though....

My point was that if it'll play those (relatively) advanced FPS's, it won't have any problem with MAME.

Well Hanaho sells a ready-made cabinet for over $1000 and I'd say you are well on your way to beating that particular price point!
