How well will this computer run PCSX2?

[Adiuvo]

Specs:

Intel Core2 Quad, 2.50 ghz, 6mb cache
3 gigs of ram
32 bit vista
Raedon HD 2600 XT

I'm hoping to play Okami and FFX, and some other games I suppose. Those two are my main concern right now.

Seems good, an overclock 3.0Ghz+ would be better

Try it.

I have a Q6600 at 3Ghz and a Radeon X1950, I can play FFX at about 70FPS with the frame limiter off, with it on, I'm always at a perfect 50FPS (mine being PAL) unless there is alot of effects happening on screen, in which case, my fps drops to about 30 for a few seconds, but that's my aging GPU's problem, not the CPU so you should be fine.

I haven't tried PCSX2 on my stock CPU speeds for a while but if I remember correctly, running it when my CPU was at stock 2.4Ghz, everything ran at about 50FPS smoothly, sometimes dropping to 40fps.

Not sure about the radeon 2600, but using gsdx it shouldn't be much of a problem. And don't bother to overclock it if you plan to mainly play FFX, though for other games it would help quite a lot to have 3ghz.

Check this out if you plan to OC, it covers the basics well, and i think C2Qs OC roughly in the same way a C2D does so it should be fine.

you should get good FPS for FFX but I've never tried Okami so I couldn't judge that accurately. I have a quick question too. why don't the site administrators make a separate thread or section just for PCSX2 computer issue questions? I think the forums would be much more organized if they put up more sections.

For Okami - 2,5GHz C2D is too low to get fullspeed all the time - @3.0GHz+ u should be fine.

For FF X - this laptop should do fairly well in this game, but it won't run it at fullspeed all the time.
