If I have an Nvidia GPU, I should use OpenGL in PCSX2?
And if I have an AMD GPU, I should use Direct3D?

Is this correct?
As long as AMD doesn't make a better driver, yes
Thank you!
In my opinion OGL is still slower on average than D3D.

I've had a few games where I couldn't quite get playable rates (to my standards) and nothing would bump up to the frame rates I wanted except for switching to D3D

That said OGL is much more accurate, my advice would always be to use OGL first on a game and if you have playable speed you're good to go.
Makes sense, I'll do that.

If effects are rendered properly on both Direct3D and OpenGL then OpenGL will be faster (at least on intel and nvidia).
