Rig specific configuration issues
#1
Hello, I am having some issues with configuring my emulator. Info as follows:

Emulator Version 0.9.8-r4600

Games I play most: FFX, FFX-2, FFXII, Tekken Tag, Manhunt

Mobo: Gigabyte GA-H61M-S2-B3
CPU: Intel i3 2100 @ 3.1ghz
GPU: Nvidia GT 520
Ram: Patriot G2, PC3 10700 1333EL Series, 4GB x2
Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 64 bit

Biggest issue is speed. I'd like some help finding a proper speed build, I know Tekken probably won't run at it's regular speed, but I have heard of success stories with the other games. I don't have a problem reconfiguring plugins by game either, I just have been going a bit crazy trying to figure out what works and what doesn't. I take instructions well, and am quite tech literate. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Intel Core i3 2100 @ 3.1-3.4ghz
Patriot G2 DDR3 10700 8GB

*try set VU cycle stealing at Lv-1 or Lv-2 that the only way to boost up speed but "watch out" for the false FPS reading.
*Tekken Tag may not run that well even my i5-2500,HD5750 doesnt run pretty good.

Will try that. I have read that lowering sound quality can boost FPS rate, any truth? Also, which graphics plugin is best for my build? I have read mixed opinions on this.

*use GSdx AVX
*disabling windows aero might add-up a bit

ff* - should run fine on default settings. just make sure GSdx is set to native.

Tekken - won't run full speed, does not even run normally fast on a real PS2

I actually haven't had any success with the default. Most of the problem is, if I don't change anything, slow speed, and video bars, stripes, etc. Forgive me if I'm slow responding, I'm posing from my desk, and working with the emulator at my main PC.

*well the time will tell until you master/experience all the config elements of pcsx2. i'm already 4+ year pcsx2 user and as forum member for 3+ years.
and addition to knowledge of Computer hardware e.g. CPU,Video card,brands,maintenance/safety..
*let's say you already use pcsx2 for 2~ years may become pro user in the future.
