Go to GSdx setting, set your Renderer to DX9/DX10 (Hardware), and check the Native box below it.
Then enable Speedhacks(from Emulation Settings), set the EE Cyclerate to the middle(2) or far right(3).

Try running your game, and hope there will be some improvement.

i have first slider in speed hack on 2 for ee and 2 for vu. also have intc spin checked and wait looped checked. mvu flag hack checked and mvy block hack checked. i have dx 10 hardware and native is the only box checked that i have.

Set the VU to 0, it doesn't give anything except false fps.

Try turn on the Turbo mode(F5) while playing, or use the different Preset mode at the bottom of Emulation window.

Your problem is CPU, runnning at 2.2GHz won't give the speed you hoped for..
