No AVX version of GSDX in my plugin folder, where to get it?

[Lordani66]

I wanted to come back to PS2 emulation but what I noticed right off the bat was that the plugins folder didn't include GSDX plugin for graphics with AVX instructions option. There are only SSE2 and SSE4 version as well as AVX2, but my CPU doesn't have the AVX2 instruction, only AVX (I know it because I already used such plugin before). I have i5 2500K and the latest version of 1.5.0. Where can I get the AVX version or isn't it supported anymore and if so, why?

Also, for my GPU - AMD RX 590 - which one is better, D3D 11 or OpenGL?

From where you are suppose to download pcsx2
Official
https://pcsx2.net/download/releases/wind...ndows.html
Beta(which is FAR better than the official release)
https://buildbot.orphis.net/pcsx2/

If your cpu don't have AXV instructions,placing the file there will do nothing
For amd gpu,dx is better(speed wise,not compatibility)

Thanks for the input but I got my emulator exactly from there, the latest beta version of 1.5.0 and it doesn't have AVX plugin. I assure you that my CPU does include AVX instructions.

Please post the contents of the emulog.txt file after the problem occurs. The file can be found in "My Documents\PCSX2\logs" for the installer version or in "PCSX2\logs" for the portable/binary version.

Please make sure to enclose your emulog in code tags like so (remove the empty space on the closing code tag!):

Pasted emulog goes here

What do you mean by "problem occurs"? There is no problem internally with the emulator. IDK what you mean.

Sw renderer will automatically use avx, as a plugin sse3 and avx were removed.

Okay, thanks for responses, I have one last question. What does this option in BIOS settings change? Does it change anything about how games are shown on my screen or is it just for the BIOS settings menu only?

It should be apart of the SSE 4 plugin. Mine says (MSVC 19.00 SSE4.1/AVX) for example. Unless things have changed since last year.
