Which one is that? I must have changed something because God of War is running like crap for me all of a sudden.

I'm not sure i'd recommend the latest gsdx(1426) myself. When i try it it gives me an error message on app startup and no longer appears in the config dropdown. Previous version works fine. The recent beta of the main app is not much better since save states just hang it.

Is that gsdx the 1.1.15 one? Death would you mind linking me towards that one? Sadly, I have to use an older 1046m modified gsdx because for GOW it removes that weird green fog. I wish I knew how to modify the newer files so I could get the speedboost and the green fog removed!

I wonder if this will play suikoden V? I should fire up a few games.... final fantasy X looks so darned beautiful with the proper graphics plugins and settings it's just stunning... played it through a couple of times in the past, but never any others. Played at a smooth 60FPS 95% of the time with a Q6600 running at 3.6 and 4 GB ram.

Too bad, it does not support Macintosh :hmmm:

True, BUT there was a version of PCSX (considered "good enough", I believe) for Mac OS X made by a fan, and seeing how there's a Linux version I can see the same thing happening again in due time.

Just a shame that "younger me" didn't take better care of his discs - really annoying how some levels of some games have no music/dialogue :/

My system is similar to yours (even though my CPU is slightly weaker). Have you played any of the following using the PCSX2?

Persona 4

Any Metal Gear Solid game

Yakuza 1 and 2

Ace Combat 5

Works perfectly, I've been playing through it (Y)

Do you think I can play it without any hiccups (specs wise)on my problems or am I just dreaming?

It wouldn't hurt to try but I'm pretty sure it won't run very good. PCSX2 is very CPU hungry and considering that yours is clocked at 2.2ghz is a problem.

Hmmm... Well, I'll post my experience here once I get around to trying Persona 4 soon using the emulator.

I found a post regarding Persona 4 using the emulator on Gamespot forum. It gives me hope. :p

maybe, however you need to check your configuration first

regarding to the topic:

my laptop specs are on the signature

the only games that I have played are Persona 4 and Kingdom Hearts

P4 runs more or less, sometimes I hit fully 60 fps, others 60 fps with frameskip and other it tooks a big nosedive (less than 30 fps, depending on the enemies on screen, damn those shinning enemies ??) however I have finished the game already on the emu, the counter clocking 45 hours =)

Kh is running great so far, usually I have fullspeed 50% of the time and the framerate never goes below 40 (worth to mention that is a PAL version)

hope my experience had helped you

I just got 30 minutes into Persona 4. So far, the game is looking good. Technically, the game is running very smoothly at 60 fps with rare choppy sound that last 1-2 seconds that happened once or twice. Apart from that, everything's working smoothly. :)

Here are some screenshots:

Sorry to work decent the program likes a dual core.

[Victor Rambo]

I will still try it on my pc. :shifty:

I'm running it... But it doesn't seem to help a whole lot. I can't get Dark Cloud 2 running past 35-45 fps.

Though Kingdom Hearts is looking awesome at 1920 x 1080 :D

Have you thought about overclocking your i7 at all? Anything above 3ghz helps.

I don't think it's the processor's fault. Dark Cloud 2 still cannot be run properly on 0.9.6. In fact, the GDSX plugin's latest updates try to solve the problems with Dark Cloud 2 if you look at their changelog.

Wasn't aware of that. Regardless, I still think my statement stands concerning above 3ghz usually helps. It would be interesting to see if it had any sort of speedup on his computer.
