Region OS CPU/GPU Revision Graphics Sound/Pad
NTSC-U Windows
  • Intel Core i7 @ 3.40 GHz
  • NVIDIA GeForce GTX 285 @ 768 MB
1.2.0 (r5782) GSdx SSE41 (r5801m)
  • SPU2-X 2.0.0 (r5801)
  • LilyPad 0.11.0 (r5801)
Requires simulate VIF 1 FIFO read ahead to get ingame. With hardware mode, almost no graphics show. Looks perfect in software mode, but runs very slow.
PAL Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit
  • Intel Core i5-4690K @ 4.50 GHz
  • NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750 Ti
1.2.1 GSdx 0.1.16 (r5875)
  • SPU2-X (r5830)
  • LilyPad 0.11.0
No graphics in Hardware mode. Looks OK in Software mode. Needs simulate VIF FIFO read ahead to get past loading screens. Framerate dips very frequently. RoafBeast
NTSC-J Windows 10
  • AMD FX-8320
  • AMD Radeon R9 270X
1.2.1 GSdx 0.1.16 (r5875) SPU2-X (2014-07-14) GSdx Renderer set to Direct3D11 (Hardware). Top half of graphics in Hardware mode, to fix Enable HW Hacks and set Skipdraw to 3, and enable Texture Filtering. Needs simulate VIF FIFO read ahead to load. Some Frame rate drops. Skark18
PAL-E Windows 7 Ultimate (x64)
  • Intel Core i7-2600 OC @ 4.10 GHz
  • NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 @ 4 GB
1.2.1 (r5873) GSdx 1.0.1.9 SSE4 (2016/01/05) SPU2-X 2.0.0 (r4851) To remove bottom half black screen in Hardware mode, change resolution to native. To fix some glitch graphics enable HW Hacks and set Skipdraw to 3. Since it has to run on native res, you might want to enable 2x/4x MSAA in HW Hacks, if you can't spare Anti-Aliasing, consider playing in blend instead of bob(interlacing). Loading Screens/Tutorials flash after a while and may trigger epilepsy attacks. To play Multiclash aceptably, at least Skipdraw 22 is necessary. Grester
NTSC-U Windows 10
  • i5 4670k @ 4,2GHz
  • Nvidia GTX 1080
1.5.0 (dev3399) GSdx 1.2.0 SPU2-X 2.0.0 Played on 1080p, everything was fine. If the glow effect too much or glitched, use internal (ps2) resolution or try different texture offset numbers. Ghard
