Kondrath Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 Have you thought about overclocking your i7 at all? Anything above 3ghz helps. Nah, I haven't tried overclocking. I'm just using the stock cooler and it's already somewhat hot. If I ever get a better cooler I might consider it. I wasn't aware of the dark cloud issue, thanks Maskedforever.

+Mystic MVC Posted July 7, 2009 MVC Share Posted July 7, 2009 Nah, I haven't tried overclocking. I'm just using the stock cooler and it's already somewhat hot. If I ever get a better cooler I might consider it.I wasn't aware of the dark cloud issue, thanks Maskedforever. With that stock cooler I wouldn't even think about overclocking like you said. To go along with what Maskedforever said, if the gsdx's latest plugins don't work, you can always try their latest beta ones as well.

DDStriker Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 Very impressive they've improved it a lot before i could get about 5 FPS and the graphics were rather bad (black and a few shades of blue) but now the games brightness just alternates between lighter and darker and i'm yielding around 15 FPS Game: Dragon Ball Z Budokai Tenkaichi 3 Intel Pentium 4 541 Presscott 3.20GHz Asus En8600GT DDR2 I'm suprised you feel there wasn't much gains on the i7 could you perhaps try with a game that other people have played and reported fps? i'm sure the i7 should yield alot more since the emulator would be highly dependant on the cpu (wonder if they'll write code to take advantage of cuda or opencl for some of the cpu emulation :D) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/741726-pcsx2-096-released/page/4/#findComment-591245972 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Full 60fps. I haven't tested anything besides KH and Dark Cloud 2. My DVD drive is causing my computer to freeze for some reason...

DDStriker Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 ah fair enough i only saw other posts getting 60 fps with p4 but not sure on resolution just figured it wasn't an intensive game :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/741726-pcsx2-096-released/page/4/#findComment-591245994 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skulltrail Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 I remember when Bleem was the only PlayStation emulator. *sigh* Good times. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/741726-pcsx2-096-released/page/4/#findComment-591246028 Share on other sites More sharing options...
sensurround Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 I remember when Bleem was the only PlayStation emulator. *sigh* Good times. I can still see the horrible yellow background...it haunts me in my sleep... It was fun while it lasted though.
