My specs:

cpu: amd FX-8300
ram 4gigs of ddr3 memory
gpu: msi r9 270

system: win 7 ultimate

I can get tremendous ammounts of fps, but the game runs in slow down, and when I limit fps (which worked on my previous pc to run mk komplete edition) it still runs slow in that fps.

Can someone here please help me? I am at my wit´s end about this...

EDIT: I am trying to run soul calibur 3

Please post a screenshot of all of your pcsx2 settings.

Is SC3 emulation standart of pcsx2 demand on pc, or is it rather an exception?

Also, I have heard of people with dual cores running pcsx2 games on 60 fps, so how come my 8 core cant do the same?

With regards to the settings, Just normal default settings, no AA, dx9hw and running in native resolution.

EDIT: meh, I am such a moron for getting 8 core, should have known better...

Pcsx2 uses a max of 3 cores. Also, soul calibur is one of the most demanding ps2 games to emulate.

Like I said, it needs 4.3Ghz + on Vishera. I have personally tested it as such.

I see, my cpu can only run at 4.1 per core on turbo. Shame really. Anyways, will it cut twin snakes and FFX?

Well, You are right, I could prolly try to oc...

I am wondering how far I could push it on stock fan, I was thinking of 400Mhz per core, but I am nor really sure it will hold up...

I remember When I tried to OC my old athlon II dual core to 4900, it started spewing all kinds of BSODs, hence why am I reluctant to do so.

Anyways, thanks for helping me out so far guys.
