well pcsx2 uses only 2 cores so you can set pcsx2 for 0 and 1 cores only... and clock speed 2.8 can be tweak by speedhacks but you can also consider overclocking it at 3.2ghz

Now I think, SotC is the problem. God of War and Dragonball: Budokai Tenkaichi 3 are running well.

Sotc requires a lot of raw power, more that GoW or DBZBT3
Overclocking would help you anyways.

Manually setting CPU affinity for the Athlon II X4 is useless and unnecessary. The only reason it's recommend for Lynnfield is because it overclocks itself by up to 533MHz when only 2 cores are active.
Unfortunately, overclocking is pretty much still a necessity for fullspeed without speedhacks. Not sure what speedhacks work for SotC but I doubt any will give you an add'l 40-45 FPS.
By the way, given your GPU is also on the low-end, I suggest checking the box for native resolution. It's possible it's the GPU holding you back and not the CPU.
