How to Fix Slow Motion in PCSX2 (2024) | Increase FPS Guide for Low End PCs

[@RGisOnline]

If you find a setting that helped improve performance in PCSX2, then please comment down below so I can test it out myself. UPDATE: I tweaked and experimented with a few settings and I think some settings you should turn on or off: - Anti-Blur should be turned "On", because it generally looks better and it also gives an extra 3 FPS boost, from testing within Metal Gear Solid 3 Snake Eater - If you have a Low End CPU that does not have MORE than 2 cores then I suggest turning off "Enable Multithreaded VU1 (MTVU)", I gained an extra 2-3 FPS when I turned it off. (CPU: i3-4160 (2 core CPU) - Don't turn on FXAA, You will lose about 4-5 FPS. Also if you are interested in knowing how strong your PC must be in order to run any game in PCSX2 then here is my minimum requirements that I would suggest since the official PC minimum requirements are a bit high (This is the official PC minimum requirements for PCSX2 which is already on there official website, but I added a few notes so please read them in the brackets next to each one): Processor (CPU): Dual core with four threads (Yup, you need a good CPU) System memory (RAM): 8GB RAM (4GB of RAM should be enough) Video card (GPU): Nvidia GeForce GTX 750 (I would say a GTX 480 is enough to run 1080p in some games, but 720p works well in every game) AMD Radeon RX 560 (I have an AMD Radeon HD 7750 and it works perfectly with 1080p in most games) Intel Arc A380 (Not sure about Intel GPUs. Note this is GPUs and not intergrated graphics like Intel HD 4000) 2 GB of VRAM (You don't need more than 512MB of VRAM, I tested it out) OpenGL 3.3 compatible DirectX 11 compatible (You can choose between DX11, DX12, Vulkan, Software, but DX11 is the best performance-wise)

Hey bro, I dont think i match the minimum requirement although would leave a like and follow for your channel

[@relaxwithvito6804]

In case you're still around i'll provide the information for it . System Model Aspire A515-51G Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-8250U CPU @ 1.60GHz, 1800 Mhz, 4 Core(s), 8 Logical Processor(s) Installed Physical Memory (RAM) 20.0 GB Total Virtual Memory 28.4 GB NVIDIA MX130/INTEL UHD 620

[@RGisOnline]

You don't really need to 100% match the minimum requirements to play games smoothly at native resolution, your CPU is extremely good, You have way too much RAM and your GPU is fine, so PCSX2 should run games smoothly on your PC if you run the games at native resolution@@relaxwithvito6804

Excellent I had problems with KOF maximum impact 2 the songs sounded slow and with this configuration I improved it a little not to 100 but at least it is playable I hope more perfect configuration continues

[@raxizy]

Best video on yt for pcsx2 settings

[@martin.aguilar.a]

Great news, I think the PCSX2 team fix it!!! Yesterday when I start up Silent Hill 2 on PCSX2 on PC it literally stays 60fps (100%) while playing Silent Hill 2 intro cutscene, James looking at the mirror, meeting Angela, meeting pyramid head on the apartment and meeting Eddie. The whole cutscene stays 60fps (100%)! The game also stays 60fps (100%) and runs better!!

[@RGisOnline]

That is great to hear! 🙂

I could be wrong, or I fixed!! My game on PCSX2 doesn’t slow down! Hopefully it fixes other games.

[@L9bayelAreenemies]

holy shit this worked

[@mohamedahmedsamir712]

Didn't work with me i get 17 fps in resident evil 4

[@bacbac7971]

Are you playing on pc or Android ?

[@riko_as]

Lol you can play re4 on pc version without lag

[@rickyhenfer]

Why would you choose the PS2 version of RE4? It is one of the worst ones

[@tropicjohi2165]

Dude thanks this really helped with most of my games but I’m playing bully and it’s still super slow but it works for other games I’m not sure what to do

[@RGisOnline]

Yeah, sadly that is also how it is for me, some PS2 games are lightweight to run while others are super intensive and some PS2 games require a strong CPU otherwise if you have a slow CPU, you will get slow motion alot, so I wouldn't 100% recommend upgrading your graphics card or RAM, but get a better CPU since I've seen that helps a lot with slow motion and it allowed me to play at a much higher resolution

[@kingsagark2801]

Dear king, please drop ost of your video. First time i setup my pcsx 2 with so much power in me after AOT.

[@RGisOnline]

It is a soundtrack from Tekken 8 called "Volcanic Bomb (Climax)", here's the link to it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/h3u3g6Zoh92cebc

[@jfjhdhvf3890]

Not work for me why 😢 it show me 60 fps but its not and I have Realy good speac

[@chosofbPG]

bro it is or maybe it's just the game's regular speed you'r lucky i can't run most of the ps2 games

[@RGisOnline]

@@chosofbPG The game's speed is supposed to say 100% and usually for most games the FPS cap is 60, so if you reach 60 FPS then you should be able to play the game smoothly and you shouldn't have slow motion

I love u ❤

[@l3772]

I dont have the settings button on my pcsx2

[@RGisOnline]

Which PCSX2 version are you running? The nightly build or the stable version of PCSX2?

[@Mae4Ever]

hey what about the screen tearing? Should I use v-sync?

[@RGisOnline]

yes, you should enable vsync if you dont want screen tearing

[@Kyougin504]

Does this work for all games or some games

[@RGisOnline]

It works for all games on the PCSX2 emulator

I’m using a HP laptop with a celeron N4120 processor… will Pcsx2 even work for me?? Trying to play NCAA NEXT 06

[@roktindebris]

damn bro, it might run but it depends on the game you'll play, my HP laptop has a Ryzen 3 3250U but even with these settings changed as seen in the video only a number of games can smoothly run on the PCSX2 emulator

[@RGisOnline]

Yeah, I'm sorry but a low end laptop with that slow CPU can't run any game smoothly on PCSX2, PCSX2 requires a pretty good CPU to emulate these PS2 games

[@Islammapper1357]

STILL SLOW MOTION

[@gochiefs206]

Im using pcsx2 on retroarch can you access these settings on it?

[@RGisOnline]

I'm not sure, sorry :(

[@Haoselico]

Hey, so Gta sa runs at 60 fps on my pc, bit sometimes, the framerate drops to 55 then goes back to 60, is there a way to make the framerate a consistent 60 without any drops? (Thanks in advance)

[@RGisOnline]

Sadly there isn't, also there is actually a PC version of GTA San Andreas that will work way better so I would recommend trying to download the PC version of GTA San Andreas instead of using the PS2 version, since the PC version basically runs on any PC on the planet

[@Haoselico]

@@RGisOnline oh well, in that case, is there any way to transfer existent save gta sa save files on pcsx2 towards the pc version?

[@elestirengurme]

my game is 30 fps how to make 60 ?

[@RGisOnline]

What game are you playing and does it stay on 30 FPS all the time while you are playing the game?

[@elestirengurme]

@@RGisOnline lord of the rings the kings return and yes game stay on 30fps

[@RGisOnline]

@@elestirengurme What is your game speed, because if your game speed is at 100%, then that means the game is meant to run at that FPS, so if you get 100% game speed and you are getting 30 FPS then you have to run that game at that framerate sadly

[@elestirengurme]

@@RGisOnline okay but all my games like this all games 30 fps
