So I was able to play just fine a couple days ago with my old card gtx 260 no frame rate issues for the game I am playing and I installed my new graphics card today (gtx 570) and now it lags a lot and I can't seem to edit anything in the video settings like I could before.
So it seems the emulator doesn't realize I have a graphics card is my conclusion (could be wrong) and now need to figure out how to make it recognize it or whatever.
gtx 570
4 gigs of DDR2 ram
Intel quad Q8400
Windows 7 ultimate 64 bit
I mean literally worked 2 days ago with the same game and the only difference was it was a gtx 260 not a 570. For those curious its for the game wild arms 3. Thanks in advance for anyone who can help me out!

does your windows recognize the Card well. Check that you have updated your drivers. Was your GTX 260 overclocked.

Maybe try removing the emulator completely, and removing all registry entries for it too. Then reboot and reinstall, as I had a similar problem with (of all things) a Megadrive emulator. Worked when I fresh installed it.

Depending on the game, it has been found that nvidia Fermi gpu's are explicitly more bottlenecked on Core 2 and AMD cpu's than pre fermi parts.
IE, CPU is being utilised more by the driver to try and drive the GPU leaving the Main threads starved.

Maybe in PC games, but in pcsx2 I doubt that. If what you say is true, then mind telling me what games are those?
