How much is 30fps?

Aerosoldier · April 27th, 2008

Well lot ago i asked if my pc can play FFX, my specs are:

-Am3 mobo
-XFX 8600gt ddr2 512mb
-AMD 64x2 4200
-1gig ram corsair ddr2 800mhz(gonna buy another gig soon)

and a guy told me that i can run FFX at 30 fps? so how much is 30 fps? half speed? or what?

TLIXX · April 27th, 2008

pretty much indeed. when using ntsc, full speed is 60, pal is 50fps

rainbow · April 27th, 2008

It depends on region of the game. For PAL full speed is 50fps and for NTSC it's 60fps.

And playing a game at half-speed on the PS2 is not enjoyable buddy, so you may not like what you see. I'd imagine you get more than 30 though, those specs aren't to bad for FFX.

Aerosoldier · April 27th, 2008

and do you think i can run older games at 60fps?

Mkilbride2588 · April 27th, 2008

Well...FFX is pretty much one of the lowest requirement 3D games, you'll probably get 40 or more depending on the scene...some will be pretty slow though.

2D games should be no issue for you though.

Aerosoldier · April 27th, 2008

Oh! so i can play Disgaea 1 & 2 and few other games?

Mkilbride2588 · April 27th, 2008

Yes, those games you will have no problems playing, at all. Perfect 60FPS.

Sound nice, gonna try it at night thanks.

Actually Shining Tears gets 6.5 FPS on my system, my system is on the higher end so I think some 2d games have problems playing on PCSX2.some 2d games may work but I was using PCSX2 0.9.4/0.9.5 beta with GSdx (or ZeroGS they are both slow) and nothing gave me a speed increase.

Mkilbride2588 · April 28th, 2008

Properly emulated 2D games should run full speed, that's what we're talking about.

Aerosoldier · May 3rd, 2008

And what about Okami? coz is a 2d game isn't it?

TomAlek · May 3rd, 2008

2x slower then max speed [60fps]. Watch the film, and turn it 2x slower.

NBA STREET VOL 2 on my comp [C2D e6850, GF 8800GT, 2GB ram] 5 FPS - how to repair it?
I use GSDX 0.1.7 SSSE3

Not so far in the way of "repairing" as its improving the code to better work with it.
