I have read all the tips on how to post so Ill try to be as helpful as possible.

My system is an HP Pavilion with an Intel core-i3

Specs
OS: Windows7 Professional 64bit
System model: HPE-490t
BIOS: Version-6.10
Processor: Intel core-i7 CPU By 980 @ 3.33Ghz (12 count CPU's)
Memory: 16GB RAM
DirectX: DirectX11

Display
ATI-Radeon HD5570
Manufacturer: Advanced micro devices
Chip type: ATI display adaptor (0x68D9)
DAC type: Internal DAC (400Mhz)
Approx: Total memory 4GB
Drivers: up to date

Emulator: I'm using PCSX2 Mostly default settings

I am not super tech-y but I looked up what kind of computing power the PS2 had and my computer demolishes it.
However the PS2 is a great gaming system and I guess its how you used it in this case. GTAIII and Crash bandicoot work okay But when I try Need for Speed Underground it works well until the music starts and graphics get more intense then lil Jon sounds high (slow).

Any help would be greatly appreciated
