Hooray first to post... Your specs seem just about the same as mine, and i can run Persona 3 FES pretty darn good. The only reason i dont use PCSX2 that much is because my dumb laptop likes to slow down occasionally to the point where it will eventually stop running the program.

but thats an issue i still cant find the solution to.
Getting back on topic, how many fps do you get in Timesplitters and Hitman 2? I would love to be able to play them
( I usually get 45-60 with Persona)

how do i test it? do i run the game and check the window with the developer notes at the same time?
EDIT: oh i pay attention to the information at the top of the window the game is running in.

so i see that Timesplitters is running at 60fps. there is no lag, there are some minor graphical problems. other than that it's smooth. Hitman 2: i'm on the kirov park mission. it starts at 45-50fps and as i run to pick up the car bomb it kicks up to 60fps. you can notice a slow down at certain areas. other times it plays smooth.

Well your CPU can run a fair few titles but with that GPU you may want to look more at 2D games.
I know very little about Intel's GPUs but if with that one you can run KH(A less-demanding 3D game) then you can probably play FFX, FFX-2 and perhaps FFXII.
If your running at a higher res that's prob all you can do but if your willing to play native you could maybe do a few titles like Dark Cloud 1 among others.

I got Timesplitters to work at 30-50 fps! Lol thats good for my pc, i had to set the Preset to 5 Agressive Plus though. But each game has their own tweaks you need to do im sure.
Doubtanyone else on this thread is a fanof Yu-Gi-Oh! but Yu-Gi-Oh! GX The Beginning of Destiny runs quite well. I consider that superb for such a rare game
