Power supply to consolize a Neogeo MV2F

[fatalfury2a]

Hello, I'm preparing to consolize an MV2F Neogeo board and after reading all info I found I have a doubt about power supply.
It seems that for one slot boards with +5V 3A is enough but with 2 slots...
Which one should I get a +5V 3A or a +5V 4A?
Which one should work best?

Thanks in advance.

Check out this thread for information on the +5V current draw:

But what are you planning to do about the +12V line? You will need to supply the MV2F with +12V as well.

Well, according to Jamma-Nation and his guide to consolize an MV2F I'm planning to do the +5V only mod:

Reading the link you provided is enough with a 3A power supply
Thanks!

But what are you planning to do about the +12V line? You will need to supply the MV2F with +12V as well.

I like the $20 weiya's that can be had online. Not quite as convenient as just a wall plug, but its got a digital voltage display. Some boards like 5.1 or 5.2v and some will run ok on under 5v. In my experience more slots require a bit more voltage, but its not always the case depending on the revision.
