How well would PCSX2 run with a SAPPHIRE HD 3850 Graphics card? I appreciate the help. Thanks.

Your processor is going to seriously hold you back.

Thanks for the reply, but how so?

It's a single core Pentium 4. Those simply don't have the horsepower for many popular 3D games. You should be able to do some decent 2D games, however.

It's recommended (to run smoothly) that you have at least dual core (Core 2 Duo) 3.0 GHz or better.

Dang, I plan on playing games like Ratchet & Clank, Kingdom Hearts, ect

You might be able to do Kingdom Hearts ok, actually. That's one of the least demanding 3D games.

See the thing is I'm buying that computer from a friend for $250. I'm buying it specifically for gaming.
