demosthenes2010 Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 I have a pack of ZINC Games with the ZINC emulator but even as far back as 2004 I am finding forum posts suggesting that everything Zinc can do, MAMe can do as well. The concern way back then was that processing power made the less efficient MAME incapable of running on lower end machines but given that I have a relatively new i7, I'm guessing this is irrelevant to me? The most recent forum post I found is from three years ago and that, too, seems to suggest that MAME has caught up with that subset of games and that ZINC is no longer necessary. Any good reasons to keep ZINC? Any games that it can emulate "of note" that would make me want to set it up anyway? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Headrush69 Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Not really. MAME has better emulation. Although it rendering is done in software. With a good shader it looks good and your machine can run it fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
