So I've been trying to optimize my PCSX2 to play Suikoden V and been having problems with consistent framerates at 60fps. It fluctuates between 50-60 fps constantly which is very annoying. I've been tinkering with it for hours, and just conceded to it being inconsistent. Here is my setup and settings:
Intel i5 oc'ed to 3.0ghz
6GB ram
Nvidia 9800GTX+
*edit* Also using the latest beta build of pcsx2.
Plugins and settings:
gsdx10 at 2x native resolution
direct10 hardware
all other settings default except for some speedhacks:
-enable intc spin detecton
-enable wait loop detection
-mVU flag hack
-MTVU
Here's the peculiar part... I have dual monitor setup and like to watch movie/gaming streams while I play, and right when I put up a stream from justin.tv my fps jumped to a constant and flawless 60. When I turn limiter off it even stays around 90... However right when I turn off the stream the fps dips down again to fluctuating between 50-60fps. So it's not really a big deal for me to turn on a stream while playing (actually preferred), but anyone have a clue why its doing this? Find it weird that turning on a stream which takes up a good amount of memory and a little gpu and cpu power would actually enhance the performance of my emulation.
