..:: PCSX2 Forums ::..

So i've been lurking on these forums for a while and i've not found a need to ask for help before but i'm having an odd issue currently which i've not been able to solve on my own and I didn't know where to try and trouble shoot this problem.

So to give a run down of my problem i'm having problems playing rogue galaxy and hitting about 40fps for the frame rate. The problem is I can't see what is bottlenecking.

My cpu is only working at 12% utilization according to task manager. The EE core reads as 33% on PSCX2. GS is running at 9% and the UI is listed as 0 or 1%

Speed hack settings obviously aren't making much of a difference because there doesn't seem to be a computing bottleneck. I can't for the life of me work out whats going wrong.

If it matters for the specs I'm using

Ivy bridge 3570k running 4.2Ghz
Radeon 7750

Is your Windows running in "High performance" power plan ?

Yes, and using real temp program shows total cpu load shifting between 19 and 22% so it doesn't appear to be fully loading a single core at the moment.

what is your CPU? (i3/i5/i7 and number please)

I could knock the processor up another 2-3 hundred MHz but I can't imagine that would change anything when it's not fully loading whats already available.

Although my specs are different, I just played Rogue Galaxy NTSC and the framerate is 60 and my CPU is
at 40-55% load.

Have you checked your framelimiter settings?

insert the missing informarion:

Intel i_-___ Ivy bridge _.__ @ 4.2
ATI Radeon 7750 _MB/GB

downclock the i5 to stock, see if the issue remains

Just a quick question: Is the @ put before the stock cpu frequency or before the overclocked frequency ?
