I think I got a problem, I am pretty sure that my computer should be able to handle the emulator at full speed (60+ FPS), but it does only manage half speed (35- FPS). It worked just fine until the cutscene began, then it dropped to 35- FPS and stayed there.
Intel® Core™ i7 CPU Q 720 @ 1.60GHz (8 cores)
4 GB RAM
Windows Vista 64-bit
ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4650
I think this is enough to run at full speed, right?
Or does it have something to do with my plugins?
GSdx 3068 (MSVC 15.00, SSE2) 0.1.16 [GSdx-SSE2]
LilyPad svn (r 2930) 0.10.0 [LilyPad]
SPU2-X 1.1.0 [SPU-X1.1]
cdvdGigaherz (r3006) 0.8.0 [cdvdGigaherz]
Or could it be just my game? (BoF V)
I would appreciate any answers.

You may have an i7 CPU, but 1.6GHz is a little weak..

His cpu is fine for most games. It goes up to 2.8Ghz(not 100% sure). Anyway could you post you settings aswell. Do use any speedhacks? If not then try some, just not all at a time.

CPU: C2D E8400 @ 3.6

that's definitely weak for Pcsx2.
try unsig some speedhacks or overclock you cpu to get a speedboost

For this game you'll need a pretty strong GPU as well.
Try and enable "native resolution" in GSdx and see if that helps your fps.
Other than that, we just had a topic on the mobile core i7 series.
They're really not nice for running PCSX2 on them, unless you find a way
to constantly have it turbo to 2.8Ghz (and not overheat the chassis).

I think mine could be overclocked to 3.2 but....
I have Native Resolution activated, but does PCSX2 not support Quad cores?
And may I have the link for the topic on the mobile i7 series?

And, how do I overclock it in the first place? Never needed to use it....

It's a notebook cpu and we keep telling people these are not recommended..
You enable native res in GSdx in its options 
I know it is possible, and found out how, but it did not help at all, and I always use Native resolution for maximum originality XD
