I used to play crysis warhead on my desktop ran at around 30-45 fps on gamer b4 it went kaput, and id still get slowdowns on pcsx2. pcsx2 has a high requirement of power for it to run at its best (at least a 3ghz processor ,intel wise a core 2 duo and up, AMD side an Athlon X2, PhenomII X2 and up and a Nvidia GTX 260 or an Ati 4770 video card wise) . Your processor and video card seems to be on the low end =( , you might want to use some speedhacks and click the native box in gsdx (graphics plugin config section) but dont expect any miracles. =/

Try the latest beta and use speedhacks on it, specially the "x2 cycle rate" "Idle fast-forward" and "vu cycle stealing" set to slight might help. Also try making a ISO of the game and run it from there if you're using a disc currently.

an nvidia GTX 260? I have a 9800GT and the only thing bottlenecking me is my CPU.

You can play fine with an 8600, CPU is easily the most important component.
