Q: Direct 3D or OpenGL
#1
Just a question guys, what's the recommended video setting to use for PCSX2, is it Direct3D or OpenGL? I've notice in Dragon Quest 8, the shadows works in OpenGL but not sure if OpenGL is still good to use or not, would like some opinions on it.

It depends, if you have an Nvidia graphics card, definitely go for OpenGL, if you have an AMD or Intel graphics card, you should go for DirectX

It can differ from game to game, just try both and pick what works for you. OpenGL currently has more accurate features, but dx can run smoother on some GPUs.

OGL is better for MGS3 too I believe, right? (In terms of accuracy and less bugs)
AMD Ryzen 5 3600 @ 3.60~4.20 GHz | Corsair Vengeance LPX 32 GB (2x16GB) DDR4-3200
MSI GeForce GTX 1660 Super @ 6 GB | Samsung 980 1TB | Windows 10 Pro x64 (22H2)

Last time i tried the opengl plugin in v1159 version i was suprised how well it goes. I didnt try many games though. I have AMD card and didnt notice much slowdown. Not sure the reason, probably coding skills of devs Smile   5xxx generation stays at ogl 4.4 at pcsx2 didnt missed any extensions.
