I have a simply question.
Why we need to remove some effects (post-processing...) to play with good speed and with good graphic?
Playstation 2 is not an hi-tech console, why we need a Pc better than a Playstation 3 for play good and without some graphic effects?
In future PCSX2 emulator will be able to run PS2 games at full speed and with same graphic of PS2?

Because we are talking here about emulation. Means making specific soft running on a machine that basically doesn't have the same architecture as the original one.
It's like using an "on the fly" translator. You launch your game, the emulator translates all the instuctions to make them understandable by your pc.
The more accurate the translation is, the more your PC has to be powerful.
EDIT : refraction was just quicker than me ^^

Wrong question.
The good one would be : "Will PCs be able to run any PS2 games at full speed using pcsx2 ?"

no jes, I don't like to play with full speed if the game appear ugly or at least with bad graphic quality.
So I want to play with PS2 original quality.

Then use "native" resolution in gsdx and turn off AA in ZeroGS.
You'll get the exact same aspect you have using a real PS2

If I set 1680x1050 resolution (same as my desktop), then emulator crash.
