Hi all,
I bought me last week a HP Pavilion 15-e009ax, specifically to play PCSX2. It has AMD Radeon dedicated 1GB graphics, and I upgraded it to have 6GB RAM now. Yet, when I downloaded Jak and Daxter: The Lost Frontier, although the cutscenes are played at full speed, the gameplay is wont go past 20fps and occasionally goes to 30fps very briefly when an event happens out of my control like a mini-cutscene. Here are my specs:

Is my laptop not sufficient enough and needs to be upgraded with better parts? because I'm willing to do so, since I'm a learning PC/Laptop Modder. Or is it current settings I have?
