What would be the absolute lowest specs you guys would recommend for pcsx2?

You can forget all NFS games. KH might run ok. I'm not sure about the rest.

So i might as well wait till i can get at better pc that also will fit in the stand. Right?

NFS is going to need a really fast system. I can barely run it.

how much do think it would cost to get a system that would run those smoothly,and still fit in the base?

I built mine for $500 or so, but I had to do some serious shopping around.

I played Okami at around very stable 60 fps except in some few areas with an Athlon x64 3.2? ghz, 4 GB RAM (1200 or so mhz?), 460 GTX. I would definitely not recommend playing with a computer much below this as I felt this was really what was on the lower end in order to make most games run smoothly.

First time I'm going to say this but yeah: Make sure to get an ATI graphic card as Nvidia is hell bent on ruining their drivers lately ><
Also try to make it an Intel CPU as they're just a whole lot better for PCSX2. Depending on the game you're looking at 50% more performance
at the same clock.
