i posted in this thread cuz we have similar problem
hi all, i just downloaded tekken5 (my first game) and it runs very slow ( on PCSX2 0.9.8 ), its like slow motion. in the menu FPS is ok about 30-40 but when the fight starts it goes down to 10-15 FPS
i got:
windows 7
2GB RAM
AMD athlon 64 3400+ (2.4GHz)
ATI Radeon 9600
i know my computer kinda sux but what could i do to try to make it work?
What video plugin(s) are you using (if your emulator uses one)? Here's some tips:
Have very few or no other windows open except the emulator
turn OFF the frame limiter
change your battery plan to focus on computer performance
Hmm the frame limiter didnt help much, but maybe this helps?

Most of the slowdown if because the specs you have, you will need at least 3 Ghz clocked dual processor, pcxs2 only uses dual processor so higher numbers of cores doesn't help the emulation, only higher clock rates does, I have mine clocked at 4Ghz and all games runs full speed, at east what I have tried.
Even video cards are no as decisive as processor for PSX2 emulation; you both lack of video power, I think you will need at least an Ati Radeon HD 3000 series or Nvidia GeForce 6600, of course higher is better, but after Radeon HD 4850 or GeForfe GTX 280; you won't find any speed improvement, after that you will need pure main processor brute force.

Your system is under specced which is why your framerates are lagging. You need a fast dual core processor as a minimum, also Windows 7 will be using most of that 2Gb of Ram on its own. IMO you want a minimum of 4Gb ram if you're using Win 7 to run anything game or emulation related.
Haha ok, i thougth it would work with my dual core, its a 3ghz, but mabey clock it when i got a new graphcard :P
I see in my keyboard that ram use is about 80% :O im gonna by more ram later, i got this comp from my little brother when he upgraded so i dont have layd a lot time for this comp :P
Hi, I'm wondering if you guys can help me..... Im having the slowdown problem and wondering if its my hardware. I7 860 processer, gtx 295 gpu, 8 gigs of ram, and Windows 7 64 bit. Seems like enough to me but I would appropriate any advise.
PLEASE USE THIS TIP IF YOU WANT TO FAST YOUR PCSX2...... IN CONFIGURATION>>>>>>GS>>>>>>>>>>>CONFIGURE>>>>>>>>> >CUSTOM RESOLUTION IS VERY HIGH 1024.......THIS MAKE YOUR PCSX2 GAME SLOW SO YOU HAVE TO DELET 1024 FROM BOTH COLUMN AND RIGHT 512 IN BOTH COLUMN.............
Is my comp any good
I have windows 7
processor: intel celeron cpu 450 @ 2.20Ghz
3gb of ram
