I couldnt find anything on my specs in the "Will it run well on my system"

[SergeantTeddy]

I have

GTX 550 TI
8 GB Ram
AMD FX-4100


If you need anything else let me know, im trying to play shadow of the collosus and can barely get 27 frames.

Can you list all the things i need to change my settings to? Im kind've bad at this sort've thing, so if you could also list where i need to go to change everything that would be great.

Your CPU is severely limiting performance for that game. You could enable speedhacks and bump up EE cyclerate and VU cycle stealing, but don't expect miracles.

[SergeantTeddy]

So it is this piece of ***** CPU? I've had so many problems with it, Couldnt run borderlands 2 for the longest time.

[metalmallow]

Yeah, pretty much. There's a reason that series is referred to as "faildozer". xP

[ps2freak]

I call it "Fooldozer"

[SergeantTeddy]

Well , got any suggestions for a better CPU?

[jesalvein]

any intel from i5 2500K to newer.
try setting vu cycle stealing to 2, it'll help for shadow of the colossus

[StriFe]

You can't even run Borderlands 2 normally with the FX-4100?? :o I know it's a budget cpu, but it should run it with ease, but for PCSX2 yeah it is recommended to have an Intel CPU or a FX83xx Serie which comes a bit closer to some decent speeds.

Its definately alot more playable then it was before, anyway to speed it up the last 10 frames i need for it to be perfect?

UHm, it was something about my bios not telling my cpu to run properly, So for the longest time i couldnt play Borderlands 2, There was a different game that was kind've old that i couldnt run as well, cant quite put my finger on it though.

Keep in mind that you'll probably have to buy a new motherboard.

Enable all speedhacks except for "Enable Fast CDVD" and set EE Cyclerate to 2.
