Enable the MTVU hack if you haven't already and make sure your PC is set to High Performance mode in power settings aka from control panel hit power options and make sure that high performance is active.

Use Direct3 D11 Hardware mode from GSDX settings.

Also try setting a lower resolution like 2x and seeing if you get a speed boost
I tried everything you mentioned here and it's still giving me ~30 FPS quite often.

I noticed that the game runs smoothly (55-60 FPS) as long as there aren't any NPCs on-screen. As soon as an NPC shows up the FPS starts dropping, and it hits 25-30 FPS when there's three or more NPCs around me.

What are your EE, GS and VU %s during the slowdown (they are on the title bar).

Most of the time when it slows down, the EE will hover between 50-70%, the GS will hover between 96-100%, and the VU will be around 40-50%. Sometimes the EE will go up to 70-90%, but not too often (except during cutscenes where it hits 95-100%, but that's not as big of a deal to me).

Well it reaching 90% means a bottleneck is occuring. Which seems odd in this case.

I tried setting it to software mode, and tried a few random numbers in the extra rendering threads option (tried setting it to 0, 3, 8, and 16). The FPS was slightly higher when NPCs were on screen (30-35 FPS), but it's still pretty unplayable. The EE also seemed to be higher (80-95%), while the GS went down to 60-80%.

Sorry but piracy is not supported here. No further support will be given.

I've bought the game before, but my PS2 is at my parents' house, which is why I was trying to get PCSX2 working on my laptop. Is it not allowed for me to use a downloaded copy of a game I already own the physical copy of in the first place? :/
