I've tried Chrono Cross and Final Fantasy 9 with ePSXe and my performance is really low. I'm WAY over the system specs for ePSXe. I have a 1,3GHz Pentium 4, 384MB RDRAM, Geforce 2 GTS. Why is both CC and FF9 working with such a low FPS? I've tried all Pete's Video Drivers and none of them have FPS that's acceptable (I do not wish for FPS over 60 or something, but let's just say that it's not hard at all to count the frames myself with my eyes). For SPU plugins, I've tried Null2, the built-in ePSXe SPU Core and Pete's MIDAS. No combination have been found with good speed.

Anyone can help me out with this one? ^_^

Well what sort of configurations are you using with them. You know if you pop up the menu in-game with the del key you can see your fps there just fine.

Use Pete OpenGL 1.51 for GPU and select "nice" settings then enable "use frame skipping" and enable "FPS limit" where you must type 60 if you play NTSC games, and choose method 3 for "off-screen drawing"
Use Iori 1.471 for SPU and enable all options except "show realtime config window".
That should work good on your PC.

What version of Windows?
What version of DirectX?
Do you have the latest video drivers?
Is anything else running in the background?

maybe it's just the Pee 4

best collaboration with Pee 4 is WinXP. And I think ePSXe has not been optimized for ISSE2 - sure, it has more bandwith - wait for ePSXe with special ISSE2 edition

I'm on Duron 800, CC and FF IX run flawlessly, Nice settings, 1024x768x32

Get Athlon 4 instead (just a suggestion)

Huh?
404?
ISSE2?
Internationnal Superstar Soccer Evolution 2?
You sure meant SSE2

ISSE ?

correct me if i'm wrong
ISSE = internet streaming SIMD extension
SIMD = single instruction multiple data

actually for any of those sound plugins you said the best gpu is kazzuya's soft or kazzuya'sdirect gpu for fast game playing.
