Software mode appears to run significantly better than hardware mode even at native resolution. Note to everyone, PCSX2 can use hyperthreading to its advantage; set extra threads in software mode to "3" ("7" if you have a HT-capable Core i7) if you have a laptop. Even desktops are useful for this. Around 38-50 FPS on Test Course. Dan Castellaneta
