[Ericdizzle]

Hi i'm new to pscx2 i just installed it and when i load need for speed underground 2 when i get into actual game play the fps drops horribly.. can i get help on what settings to choose or what to do about this.. should i be turning aggressive hacks on or whatever?

ram - 8gb 
gpu - radeon hd 7800 series

You'll need to enable HW hacks, and set skipdraw to 1 in Configure Hacks.

Also make sure the mtvu speedhack is enabled. The game is pretty heavy on the cpu

ok i'll try this

EDIT: here's a screenshot of my settings.. is this safe?

moving the notch to aggressive makes it playable

expect some crashes. but at lest,, you get the speed you wanted
