how much GHz does procesor need with one core for decent playing

4-6ghz would be my guess.

Yes, with 4ghz to 6ghz single core cpu you can play in acceptable speed. So you need LN2 for that speed. Btw i saw someone can go to 7ghz lol.

8.2 ghz is world record

That was a P4 using large amounts of liquid nitrogen
AMD got a Phenom II X4 to 6.9Ghz using liquid helium, so it's not like dual cores can't be hit ridiculous clocks as well. But the costs are astronomical, you can't run a machine like this for very long unless you have large amounts of cash to burn.

So stefano if you've got access to several gallons of liquid helium, you can get good speeds on a single-core on most games.

what about playstation 2 procesors if he has they,could we put them to run on pc like pc procesors....?

mine Intel Core i7 920 @2.7Ghz i use to play WWE game especially everything is perfect for me

Because PC CPU's are much much faster.

Why then we can not run ps2 games with pcsx2 like on real ps2....?

There is no method I know where you could hook a PS2 processor to a PC motherboard... The architecture are very dissimilar, and there is a lot more to the PS2 than just the EE that would still need to be emulated and properly synced. If you were going to go the hardware route, why not just buy a PS2 and hook it up to your monitor through a VGA box, or by using a video capture card. You'd have 100% compatibility then

(edit) bah you guys are fast and already did some replies while I was typing. Emulating is very different from running code natively. While a PC processor and the PS2 processor can both get the same results if you gave them mathematical equations, they can and do very different things to reach the same results. And in some cases, there is no exact way to get the same result... Since the PS2 game code isn't designed to run on PCs, you basically have to work 10x+ harder to get the same results.
