Having some problems with pcsx2. Ive been playing games with it for ages but today ive had some problems with my framerate. Im playing FFXII and my system has never struggled to run this or any other game ive played, but today my framerate has dropped to about 15 FPS
Can anyone give me any advice on this? Ive got Vsync off if this helps?

I assume its a laptop so have you got sufficient cooling?
If you haven't the laptop is probably clocking down the CPU so it won't overheat

the CPU's running at 50% but the framerate is still at 15fps
What was your frame rate before?
Can you tell me your pcsx2 settings?

Have you set your laptops powerplan to high performance?
