hello
i'm planning to build a computer with rx 580 and ryzen 5 2600x
from what i've seen this is not the best combination for emulation
an intel cpu and a nvidia gpu will preform better
but i'm on a budget and this is the only way to go for me
and i just wanna know if i can play some games like kof 2 / jack and daxter / god of war
even in native resolution as long as the game will be playable
sorry for my poor english because it's not my first language
any info will be appreciated and thank you

this should perform decently. maybe expect some slow downs on Jack & daxter (which one do you own, btw ?)
CPU : AMD Ryzen 7 3800X
Mobo : Asus PRIME B450-PLUS
GPU : NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070
RAM : 16 Go

The cpu will be fine but if you can,get an nvidia gpu(not that the amd gpu is bad but the nvidia gpu have much better OpenGL support and pcsx2 works better on OGL)
The cpu has 2141 points at single threaded performance which is enough for almost all games
My i7-4771 intel cpu have tinny bit higher score but the amd one have 2 extra physical cores
PCSX2 also runs fine on i7-6700HQ which have 1800stp
GTX 1050 and up should be fine(my GTX 750 TI is also fine but it's not very good for pc games)

The amd cards dont have good open gl support. That said, I game on a threadripper 1950x and a RX 570. I've not played any of the games you mentioned.. but for games like final fantasy xii and x and kingdom hearts 4x native in dx looks really good. It's not perfect.. but very good.
If you can deal with minor effects not being there, you'll do quite well with that setup. Your proposed processor is a little higher in stp than mine, and your video card is a smidge faster.
The gtx1050 is stronger than my gtx 750 ti, and the only game I tried that I couldn't support at 4x was shadow of the Colossus...that I played at 3x.

Any GeForce 10 series graphics card is good enough for pcsx2 emulation,
save your money on other hardware or software.
