Low FPS on Windows 10
#1
So, I recently upgraded my OS from Windows 8.1 Pro to Windows 10 Pro. Now every time I try to play any game on PCSX2 it gets extremely choppy. I can't barely stay at 40fps in hardware mode and Software mode is even worse.

Just before upgrading everything was peachy, I was playing my games with no fps issues whatsoever. I tried to delete the emulator and I did a clean install, even so, the issue continues.

my specs:

Intel i7 4790K 4.0 GHz
GTX 970
8 GB DRR3 1600 MHz
Windows 10 Pro x64


This is not the only program to have this issue. A game I bought on Steam, Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth 2 is also suffering from this same issue.

I'm planning to do a clean Windows install, this is why I hate to upgrade, it always ends up messing up things.

It's already updated.

For future reference, I have everything updated to their latest releases, from BIOS, to GPU, OS and whatnot.

I seriously wonder why people were so eager to jump to Windows 10 when many emulators and their plugins are having so many issues.

While I had a Windows 10 partition up, I noticed a significant performance drop compared to that which I experienced with Windows 7 x64. As a sort of control, I could manage close to 60 FPS with Soul Calibur 2, some light AA and upscaling. On Windows 10 I was lucky to manage half of that with identical configuration. It didn't seem like Windows was over-saturating the CPU, either.

Only thing I could pin it on is graphics driver support. I hadn't done much else to benchmark my experience with native games while I had Windows 10 set up.

I tried PCSX2 v1.2.1 and some nightly build on Win10, but I was just using v1.2.1 on Win7 prior.
CPU: AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition @ 3.8 Ghz
RAM: 12GB DDR3 1600
SSD: 128GB Kingston HyperX SSD
HDD: 3 x 500GB WD Blue 7.2k RPM in RAID-5
GPU: AMD Radeon HD 7870 Ghz Edition 2GB GDDR5

I run Linux primarily anyway so the point is moot, I guess.

It's probably a hardware issue then, try monitoring your CPU temps and clockspeed using core temp and also have a look for weird background processes on task manager. Wink
