As said before, AMD's current CPUs are slow compared to current gen i5/i7 series but doesn't mean AMD sucks for PCSX2, depends on the game you're trying if it'll be enough to play anyway.
No, not quite right. At least when compared with pcsx2 fps.
Here's why:
49.08 FPS - SLUS 20672 - Intel Core i7 920 - 2.66 GHz Stock - Master_DX
48.78 FPS - SLUS 20672 - Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550 - 2.83 GHz Stock - tuanming
48.41 FPS - SLUS 20672 - Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 - 3.00 GHz Stock - antespo
48.34 FPS - SLUS 20672 - AMD Phenom II X4 945 - 3.3 GHz OC - Abelus
48.05 FPS - SLUS 20672 - AMD Phenom II X6 1055T - 3.33 GHz OC - ilovejedd (Turbo Core off) - CPU-Z
47.69 FPS - SLUS 20672 - AMD Phenom II X4 955 - 3.2 GHz Stock- Ryner Lute
AMD CPUs clocked at over 3GHz still could not manage to beat a lowered clock C2Q. Let play a bit fair and say bump the clock speed of the Q9550 to 3.2GHz and see what would happen, shall we?
56.44 FPS - SLUS 20672 - Intel Core i5 650 - 3.2 GHz Stock (Turbo Boost on) - ilovejedd
55.17 FPS - SLUS 20672 - Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550 - 3.2 GHz OC - tuanming
Well, would you look at that. Amazing isn't it? lol
