Try to avoid any combination of '''EE Sync Hack''' and '''VU Cycle Stealing''', most often it will lead to false fps readings and slowdowns instead of more speed. [[MicroVU]] can be faster in some game areas, so try it if you get low fps somewhere. Running the game as an ISO image directly from your hdd is also a good idea. If you have either Windows Vista or Windows7 use the "[[GSDX#Hardware requirements|DirectX10/11 (Hardware)]]" renderer option in GSDX, it's usually faster and more compatible than the DirectX9 one. The '''VSync''' option in the settings of [[GSDX]] should be deactivated, use the '''Frame Limiter''' of PCSX2 to keep your game from running too fast. And last but not least: try the latest public beta of PCSX2 for more speed.

Many reaction-based minigames are easier, if you set your '''Custom FPS Limit''' to a value of 30 or even lower, as the speed of the gameplay will be slowed down by that. On the other hand you can fast forward long conversations or your level grinding by disabling the '''FPS Limit''' completely, if your computer is able to run this game at considerably more than 60 FPS.
Many reaction-based minigames are easier, if you use the '''Slow Motion Adjust''' toggle (Shift+Tab), as the speed of the gameplay will be slowed down by half (or what you have set in the GS tab for the toggle. On the other hand you can fast forward long conversations or your level grinding by disabling the '''FPS Limit''' completely, if your computer is able to run this game at considerably more than 60 FPS with either the '''Turbo Adjust''' toggle (Tab) or disabling '''Frame Limiter''' completely (F4).

==Known Issues==
===Weird Hair===
* '''Type:''' Minor
* '''Affected Game Versions:''' All
* '''Description:''' Some polygons in e.g. Tidus' hair are rendered incorrectly.
* '''Solution:''' Use microVU Recompiler in VUs settings panel.

* '''Description:''' The game crashes during the cutscene, which shows Yuna's first sending.
* '''Solution:''' Open the '''Advanced Configuration''' of PCSX2 and set both EE and VU clamp modes to "Extra" and "Extra+Preserve Sign".
* '''Solution:''' Use EE and VU clamp modes to "Extra" and "Extra+Preserve Sign". ("Normal" clamps should work fine by default)
* 2nd possible Solution: Open the '''Advanced Configuration''' of PCSX2 and set CPU options to SuperVU if using MicroVU
* 2nd possible Solution: Use SuperVU Recompiler if using MicroVU. (superVU reduces the clamp need, so if "Extra" works for microVU then "Normal" would work with superVU, if "Normal" works with microVU then "None" would work with superVU)


===GSDX & ATI===
 
===GSDX===
*'''Type:''' Slowdown
*'''Affected Game Versions:''' All
*'''Description:''' During scenes like the full Shiva Summoning the FPS drop significantly and the GS% usage in the titlebar of PCSX2 shows 99%.
*'''Solution:''' Try a revision before r14xx of GSDX, like r1398.
*'''Comment:''' It occurs only if your CPU and video cards are not fast enough. Also disabling '''Allow 8-bit Textures''' might help.
 
 
===Slowdown casting Demi===

*'''Type:''' Slowdown
*'''Affected Game Versions:''' All
*'''Affected Game Versions:''' All
*'''Description:''' During scenes like the full Shiva Summoning the FPS drop significantly and the CPU usage in the titlebar of PCSX2 shows 99%.
*'''Description:''' During fire based magic casts or gravity attacks like Demi there's a big slowdown and EE/GS/VU% usage don't get high.
*'''Solution:''' Try a pre 14xx revision of GSDX, like r1398.
*'''Solution:''' Reduce the internal resolution. Also disable '''Allow 8-bit Textures'''.
