Higher resolutions will require stronger cards; 6x Internal, ~4K resolution will require a PassMark G3D Mark rating around 12000 (GeForce GTX 1070 Ti). Just like CPU requirements, this is also highly game dependent.

Enabling the MTVU speedhack allows the PS2's VU1 coprocessor to run on a third core, which is safe for most games and is generally enabled by default if possible on your CPU.Software rendering can be set to use as many or as few rendering threads as desired. We recommend using no more than 8, or the number of cores (or SMT threads) that your CPU has, whichever is the lower number. Question 7: Why is my CPU not using 100% of its power?The CPU load as reported in software such as Windows' Task Manager is usually a summation of CPU usage, across all cores. Software can only use the resources of the individual CPU cores it is actually running on, and cannot "borrow" CPU time from other cores.Question 8: Will multi-GPU (Nvidia SLI or AMD CrossFire) help with performance?No. PCSX2 does not use or require multi-GPU.Question 9: How do I check if a game is playable?The PCSX2 website has a compatibility list with every game that has been tested.Question 10: Do PS1 (PSX) games work on PCSX2?If you want to enjoy your PS1 games without issues:No, they will not work without issues. Please use a proper PS1 emulator, such as DuckStation or Mednafen.If you are a tinkerer and like to break things:PS1 games may
