Hey guys here are my specs to start with:

AMD 965 BE
4Gb Ram
Ati 5770
Windows XP x64

I am running the game at Full Speed at 1920x1080 with pretty much all the graphic plug-in stuff checked off but I get frame rate lag when there is an explosion or some other effect on screen, I know it's not a big deal compared to issues other people having but thought I'd see if you guys had and tips.

I have enabled all the recommended speedhacks but no real change before and after.

Though with my same settings I can't get Dark Cloud 2 to run as fast sadly.

Would upgrading to Win 7 help? I have been planning on doing it soon but will fast track it if it helps.

could help a bit since you could use dx10

yes it would definitely help, there's significant difference between using dx11 plugin (your gpu supports it, i have the same) and dx9. Make sure that you update Direct X too.

he has windows xp so dx 10 or 11 wont help him.

reduse the resolution of the games that will give you better speeds. (try just 1024 / 1024 then use scaling options to set it to a resolution you are happy with.

d'oh i need to learn to read the whole post xD

well it would be a good thing to go to windows 7 it is WAY better then crappy xp you will notice quite a good jump in performance i think.

which version of PCSX2 are you using? I know I used to lag spike with some quickenings in FF12, reciently they've been fixed

I am using the current beta, and from what you guys say I guess I shall be fast tracking the upgrade, I shall probably do it later today or tomorrow after I get some work backed up, I shall be back to let you guys know if it is working any better with Win 7

if you run it on native, does it still lag?
