You need to help us here. We need your computer specs. OS, CPU, GPU, RAM. We need to know what settings you're currently using. What have you tried? What version of the emulator are you using?

Windows 10 64 bits
i3_3220 3.30GHz
4 GB RAM
NVIDIA GeForce GT 520

version of the emulator: 1.5.0
What have you tried?: Use preset 5 instead of 4


Which settings do you need?

You won't get full speed with this PC whatever you do.
Keep playing it on your PS2 for now

Your CPU is good enough but I don't know about the GPU(I don't remember if that game was GPU intensive)
Are you using any non default GSdx settings...scaling or something else
Did you tried switching to OpenGL renderer or software mode(F9)

Post your GSdx setting and keep in mind that some speehack in some games do the opposite

Using negative EE cyclerate settings (as on Preset 3+) makes the game quite jerky for me - try Preset 2.

no i don't have tried the software mode and i don't know what is the Open GL

I am using a video Gs: GSdx 20160530193952 (MSVC 19,00 AVX) 1.1.0

I think, ultimately, jesalvein is going to be correct in stating your PC isn't going to be up to the task. The game can be pretty demanding. The emulator does rely more on CPU power, than GPU. Your CPU is ok for some light weight games, but probably isn't up to the task for the more demanding games. I'd recommend trying some of the tweaks people have recommended, but if they don't work, you're probably gonna have to upgrade

[jesalvein]

Nope.
I think the CPU should be up to the task.
To me, the limiting factor is the GPU here.
Even in native resolution.

That cpu should be in the 1800 stp range.. nothing wrong with it.. gpu is gonna be limiting factor for sure.
