The Phenoms aren't very good processors, clock for clock they don't stack up to some other cpus. Now, the Phenom 2s are amazing. But his Phenom already has a low clock rate plus they are already kinda slow so he is bnound to have problems. That gpu is good enough for the emulator though.

Phenom II's still aren't great for overclocking and emulation, and in most menial tasks they're only as good as a Q9400 etc, however in general gaming, they perform very well..

He said the Phenom 2's were amazing.... Um.. As I own one, I assume I'd have first hand knowledge  ?

If you need to defend your processor or feel SO inclined in answering everything,use the PM system instead of spamming in threads.
Really,I'm getting tired of this..I know you didn't start it so I'm not giving a warning,but stop taking the bate,or at least use the PM system to talk to a person directly (if it is off-topic)
Same goes to bkwegoharder.

Same goes to bkwegoharder. Defend? I said they weren't as good at emulation as the Intel counter part's, and if the OP's looking for a new PC for PCSX2, I'd say go Intel....
As I did for my brother...
Warn me for replying if you must do.
EDIT: Cain's banned.. I've got no one to bait me.
