Vista, if you have a graphics card that supports DirectX10.
As GSDX's DirectX10 mode is generally more accurate and faster than its DirectX9 mode.

So, pcsx2 faster in vista+dx10 than xp+dx9. How about running xp+dx10? There was an unofficial dx10. Btw, which vista would be the best? professional, business, home...ultimate etc...?

I think vista 64bit sp.1 is the best with good grapich card like 8800gt 512 mb or HD3870 512mb.
Notebook ASUS A43TA|CPU AMD Llano APU A6-3400m Triple core (1 core disable) OC to 2.6+Ghz|GPU CF|HD 6520 400Mhz/667Mhz iGPU|HD6650M OC 780Mhz/985Mhz dGPU|RAM 8GB DDR3 1333|Windows 7 Ultimate Sp.1 x64 bit.

Vista 32-bit should of never been made. It's a waste considering you can get 4 gigs of ram for $20 these days.

why vista 64bit when pcsx2 is 32bit application? I know there was pcsx2 64bit, but AFAIK the 64bit version was buggy.

It does not work correctly anyway, so - no.

As for which version in the best it depends on what you need. Though the general consensus is stay away from home basic.

Ouch. Oh if you are a university student you can get Vista ultimate 32/64-bit for $65 digital download. With like an extra 15 dollars if you want both a disk and a download backup. I just took the deal like 2 weeks ago. It's also the red addition which means some money of your perchase goes to help aids victims in africa and you get a few special backgrounds and such for it.
