yes that`s a pretty good choice of components my suggestion however is for the GPU an ATI X1650XT or a 7600GT.And another 1gb of ram(not that the PCSX2 need`s it but who knows what the future holds

Games like Tekken 4 and Resident 4 is heavily depend on graphics. If you ask me, pcsx2 really need both...save up some $$$ and build yourself a budget Core 2 system and get DDR2 800 for rams. Reuse your spare dvd-rom/buner, and other computer parts in your AMD pc.

No, it's already an AM2, it's quite new.

Primarily, if your motherboard can overclock thru the BIOS, thats good enough.

So here's my suggestion, the video card is enough. For now, upgrade the processor the Athlon64X2 3800, if you can though, buy the 4200 or 4600 version if you can, then overclock it.

It's also a bonus to overclock your Geforce 7300.

Actually my system is quite similar to yours before, but my video card is actually quite slower (Still is, look at my signature. ), but it ran MVC2 at 35+ FPS. Upgrading my processor to the X2 3800 then overclock it at 2320Mhz made MVC2 run at full speed, so my theory is with that video card, I'd expect Final Fantasy X to be quite playable at decent speeds.
