Based on my experience with that processor,
I'd like to suggest you consider disabling Hyper-threading in your computer's BIOS.
Perhaps strange performance behaviors will cease for you, too.
I do also wonder what games this is,
what PCSX2 version you're using and it's settings (typically what you've changed).

I use PCSX2 0.9.8 and preset number 6 in options
Games, Shining force EXA, Godhand, Rogue galaxy
Maybe I need more RAM?

not exactly RAM is not really important for pcsx2. 1GB ram could be enough for that.
what is your video card btw since that is also important for pcsx2.
using preset 6 is quite risky classified as really harmful..can break games anytime. try reduced to half(preset 3)

Are you sure you edited the right INI file?
If you used the PCSX2 installer, the default location for the inis folder is in "My Documents\PCSX2"--
If you used the PCSX2 binary package, it is "portable" by default (uses the local inis folder)--
-- or a custom location of your choice (which you probably would've known better).

Although your previous screen-shot shows a hardware renderer is selected,
your GSdx.ini file indicates that you now have a software renderer selected.
The hidden hacks don't appear when a software renderer is selected.
