Hey Im a new PCX2 usar. I downloaded the latest version and have watched a bunch of Youtube videos on how to upgrade my speed but they are not working.
The game i am having trouble with is Star Wars Battlefront: 2
I checked the compatibility page and it says fully playable.
specs:
Processor: Intel® Core™ Duo CPU T6600 @ 2.2GHz
Installed Memory(RAM): 4.0 GB (3.84 usable)
64 bit operating system
I am using PCX2 version 9.8
I have enabled speedhacks
EE Cyclerate 2
Enabled INTC Spin Detection
Wait Loop Detection mvu Flag hack
GS: GSdx 4600 (MSVC 15.00, SSE2) 0.1.16 [ gsdx-sse2-r4600}
Pad: LilyPad svn (r4510) 0.10.0 {lilypad-r460]
Spu: Spu2-x r4600m 1.4.0
cdvd: cdcdGigaherz (r5410) 0.8.0
and all the other defaults
I have used both the plugin and the iso
i have tried using turbo
Typically i will have 60 fps (average) in menu (fine with me)
and around 5-7 fps in game even with turbo
please help...

2.2 ghz is weak, unfortunately.
you will need more CPU power.
what is your GPU ?

You will need to use a (Software) renderer in GSdx for that game for now, and unfortunatelly with your CPU it will be too slow to be playable then.

oh...
how does one find their GPU? is that graphics card?
2 processor Cores
Display adapter type: Mobile Intel® 4 series Express Chipset Family
Total availbable graphics memory 1759 MB
Dedicated graphics memory 128MB
dedicated System Memoy 1631
Direct x verionsion: Direct x 10

is there any way to improve this ie (maybe usb stick speed boost?)

Not really. It'll always be a weak laptop for gaming in general, especially with PCSX2. Stick to low resolutions and don't expect too much from your GPU.
