what exactly are you looking to improve, performance or the graphics?

 

[xamnar0411]

yes sir graphics, coz i see some screenshot of them really looks beautiful :0. I just wanna know if there is more to improve.

 

[jonc2006]

do you care about the performance taking a hit because attempting to up the visual quality by using the OGL2 plugin on an onboard GPU is most likely going to induce one and there is not really any way to avoid this aside from turning some of the settings down.

I think i can't handle OGL2, because i tried it, but it says something about filters and stuff and just closes my ePSXe.

 

[jonc2006]

the OGL2 requires stronger hardware in order to get the most out of it and if your current hardware does not meet some or all of the requirements then you are not going to be able to do much as far as improving the visuals goes.

even if you could get the OGL2 running correctly you would be limited in how far you would be able to stretch the settings because the higher-end features would drag the performance downhill quite a bit if you attempt to use them.
