[Q] can my pc run ffx and how well it can run ?

[sephirothvr]

My pc spec..

Intel Pentium 4 HT s478 3.0Ghz@3.2Ghz 1mb L2 cache
2x 512mb dual channel
Geforce AGP 6800GT oc 400mhz/1050mhz/16pp

ive read around this forum n see ppl posting pcsx relies on cpu power which i lack of. But still, i really wanted to play ffx at my pc n hope any1 can giv performance result n maybe some tweak/tips on improving the fps...

[NexXxus]

forget that.
thats not playing, thats a torture xD

you can play it , but it will be slow with singlecore.
if you have a 775 Board i prefer to buy a conroe :)

If you're desperate it *is* playable with those specs, but you'll be looking at 15-20 FPS, meaning you'll play in slow-motion. Then again, this will increase the amount of time you'll be having fun with the game eh :)

[sungodsong]

Just try it~~You will know the answer~~

[sephirothvr]

thanks.... i can forget bout playing ps2 games on my pc n go back play on ps2 console back if want play ffx. btw, is there any chances they start create plugin that rather than relying on cpu, it rely more on videocard ?

[ASnogarD]

Well.... to behonest some games like Phantom Brave (runs perfectly ) and Disagea 2 (FMV's suffer) run playable...I found FFX to be not too bad , just FMV's are nasty... I got a AMD 3500+ with 2 gigs RAM and a 7900 GT 512 v card...so I would say it depends on what you try run and how much tolerance to inperfections in your fave PS 2 game you will tolerate.

my pc spec is:
intel pentium 4 @ 2.8 ghz
512 mb ram
nvidia geforce4 mx4000

can i play ffx normal?

[StriderVM]

No, pre.

Well, yes, but don't expect getting even half speed.

[ugly_duckling]

strider,,, ano dapat i-upgrade ko? mgdadagdag nalang bko ng memory??

just wait for new versions of pcsx2.
those hardeware specs should be good enough to run ps2 games, but not with a early stadium emulator.

Where did you ever hear any of the devs say something like that? Dont just say things as a guess because then people seem to expect it.

Actually ZeroFrog in his blog about 64bit recompilation, is saying
"Pcsx2 will run much faster on a 64bit OS than on a 32bit OS on the same computer once x86-64 recompilation is done." so he's partialy true.

I know what You are pointing at, however sometimes I feel all of You mods are bit hard/impulsive [I have read that post in bios version/speed before You edited it ;)] (And I can guess why, no offence here)

While I see what your aiming at but since when did P4's have 64bit instruction sets?

Heh, I guess You got me there. I didn't read his specs.
My bad.

Mine has it, its called EM64T (Extended memory 64 bits technology).

[emwearz]

Your right but I thought only the 775 socket P4's had it not 478 which the topic creator has.

Hi!, i got the next question:

e6300@2800
x1900xt
2 gb ram 800 mhz

Do you think Grandia III and FFX will run "decently" on my pc?

Thx!

Pd.: DX10 in Vista is a better OS for PCSX2?

[Mookster]

"e6300@2800
x1900xt

So, you're asking "Will games run decently on one of the fastest desktops purchasable"? Search around.

First... im argentinian so.. mi english can be a little creepy, sory.

Second, i know the answer is "ovbious" but i prefer to be sure before spend money on games i'll never play. And someone tell me (few seconds ago :D) that my Ati card maybe got some compatibility issues with pcsx2, is that right?.

Thx anyway.
