What should I upgrate?

God601 · October 19th, 2011, 04:55

I was finaly able to play Xenosaga I on my pc but with a FPS of 45 (walking in the map) and 45-60 (battle/videos).

My PC :

AN-M2HD Motherboard
AMD Athlon 64 x2 4200+ (overlocked at 5Ghz)
4GB DDR2 1000Mhz
NVIDIA GeForce 7050 / nForce 630a ( 1663mb graphic memory...)
Windows 8 Developer Preview 32-bits (Running perfectly with a boot speed of 3 seconds and 1% ram/cpu)
PCSX2 0.9.7.2661(svn) --> new one is more laggy

What should I upgrate that could increase the FPS and wouldn't cost to much money?

setting gsdx internal res to native may help you since you have a weak GPU.
try latest svn too. Maybe MTVU hack may help you a bit

I apologize in advance for this, I mean not to hijack the thread as I'm running into the same thing. Should I create a thread of my own (asking the same question about my rig) or just fire away on this thread?

Overclocked at 5Ghz? you sure about that?

Anyway, your graphic card is weak and should be upgraded.

the IGP is pretty weak and even my old X2 5200+ overclocked to 3.2Ghz is having trouble with PCSX2

I'm going to guess it's really overclocked to 2.5GHz and that the 5GHz number is coming from applying the common misconception of twice the clock speed since it's a dual core CPU?
