RE: Will PCSX2 run fast on my computer?
Well I did some research, apparently the third thread will be rendering the GUI. Any idea what that is, and what it does? Apparently it should speed up PCSX2 slightly for slower quads, but how?

But yea, the more the merrier Laugh

RE: Will PCSX2 run fast on my computer?
Hey everyone, I want to buy a new pc.. something 'cheap' (good quality/price) all I know it's that I want an Intel Core i3 540, I never build a pc before so could you help me figure out which part fits best with this processor ? Something in the lines of 2GB RAM, I'll have Windows 7, 150GB - 250GB hard drive, a good video card if possible and all the other stuff, for something like 600$ - 700$ (or close) is it possible ?

RE: Will PCSX2 run fast on my computer?
Yeah, that's what I'm aiming for ! I just don't know if there's a good motherboard for this cpu, or any part for that matter. Is there a rule to follow like what power supply I must buy with that cpu, like any 150GB - 250GB hard drive is good or some are really recommended ? Thank you very much for the quick reply ikazu !

RE: Will PCSX2 run fast on my computer?
If u really want to emulate pcsx2 with most games running at full speed always (not always), u should build your own PC, it's better than buying the branded one. If u want good motherboard, maybe u can try this one:

Biostar TH55XE sell for $82.99 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as...13138177R)
http://www.biostar.com.tw/app/en/t-serie...p?S_ID=464

MSI G31M3-FS
FSB 1066 MHz
Intel Core2Duo E7500 2.93 GHz OC-ed @ 3.36 GHz
DDR2 2GB of RAM (800Mhz)
ASUS EAH 512MB GDDR3 - HD 4350
Seagate 1TB (2 x 512GB) SATA

It will be enough for some games, for others it won't. It's medium range I'd say.
You really should update your XP to service pack 3 before someone hacks you Tongue

Your processor is the most important. The 8500 isn't that fast either but will limit you in very few games (assuming you use native resolution and not anything higher)
