That CPU is 6-8 years old. Did you fish it out of a garbage can? Regardless, any Netburst will have difficulty running any games at all.

The GPU is irrelevant, PCSX2 relies more on CPU power than GPU power. If your CPU is weak but the GPU is relatively strong, you'll run into a severe bottleneck in performance. A Core i3 with 2.2GHz will slaughter a Pentium IV at 3.0GHz when it comes to performance, but not because of the clock speed, but the instructions, no. of cores and threads per core, etc. Simply put, the CPU is much too weak to run PCSX2 at acceptable speeds.

the instructions have nothing to do with it ( nothing more than 3-5% )
after the Bulldozer got SSE4.1 he have beaten Core2Duo ??? by clock for clock

Where'd you pull those numbers? Instructions help, why else would they release so many versions of the GPU plugin? AMD isn't that great for PCSX2, Intel CPUs have better overall performance.
