The minimum requirements aren't just about putting down an arbitrary system requirements to run a system. It should reflect the minimum that that PCSX2 is compiled against.
Currently the system requirements are:
System Requirements
windows vista is no longer supported. Pentium 4 and Athlon64 are hopelessly under powered and almost no one uses these systems anyway.
On the recommended system requirements Windows 7 is no longer going to be supported by microsoft in less than 6 months from now and support for Windows 8.0 has already ended.
I'm going to put forth a new minimum.
Currently the system requirements are:
