If this is not the right place to post this, I'm sorry, but I decided to put it here considering that I haven't the faintest idea of what the problem could be.
Here's the thing: I have a new computer with the following specs:
* SO: Windows 8.1 x64
* Processor: Intel Core i5-4210U CPU @ 1.7GHz (dual core)
* RAM: 8GB DDR3
* Video Card: nVIDIA GeForce 820M
When I first ran PCSX2 on it (ver. 1.2.1), I followed some performance config guides and managed to have it run smoothly here. But some time later, I picked it up again, and it started chugging in speed. Contextualizing: at first, I could have a near-perfect emulation of Guitar Hero II, very nearly at 60fps. But now, even the menus run at 30fps.
What could be the cause? Is it memory? A bad combination of settings? Outdated drivers? Outdated version of the emulator?
Thanks in advance for any helpful answer.
