RE: Help please. Minimum specs for playing FFX
as long as you keep internal res on native and use a few speedhacks, it should be playable.
you will get some slowdowns, but it'll be overall playable.

GPU : Geforce nvidia GTX 560

Certainly should be playable. Smile

I almost found it playable on an old AMD X2 2.1Ghz, and 8200M.

At that point it depends on what you can tolerate, though.
I don't mind if you can't always keep 100% speed,
but to only see >80% when in certain situations (tight spaces, etc...),
I didn't really find that "playable".

Yours will definitely do better.
You will also need low resolution and Speedhacks, though.

RE: Help please. Minimum specs for playing FFX
With the configs of the pcsx2 on GS plugin I only can go up to DX9, but I think I can use DX10... but I don't know if i'm correct, because it doens't appear on the plugin menu, i already tried some combinations of configs an the game at the FMV's when slows down, the audio sounds terrible does anyone know if exists some config that results better? Or I must try to keep trying myself and find one?

sorry for the long post, thank you guys Smile

You need to have at least windows vista with sp2.
And of course, your gpu needs to have dx10 supportWink

You shouldn't just mess with settings if you don't know what they are.
And the sound is gonna be crappy if the game is slow,
so don't mess with sound settings trying to "fix" that.

Setting the GS plugin to the SSE4 version,
and changing the GS renderer to Direct3D 10,
are the only initial changes you should make.

As jesalvein said,
you will need at least Vista SP2 to utilize your GPU's DX10.
Otherwise, you may need to update DirectX.

From there, you should basically be setting the internal res to native,
(in Config -> Video (GS) -> Plugin settings)
and utilize what Speedhacks help this game.
(in Config -> Emulation Settings)
