What emulators are good for computer?

So what are some good emulators for computer?
By good i mean that it doesnt lag. Do ps2 emulators lag
a lot?

Well, pcsx2 needs a fast PC ...

Guess thats over for me. My laptop is slow as shit.

Better get into Genesis (Sega Mega Drive) then. The best emulator is Kega Fusion.Or try ZSNES for Super NES emulation.

Yeah...and fast means real fast!, even that fast may lag, so don't you be happy, 'cause ps2 emulators still need to be upgraded a lot.

i only use no$zoomer and it works pretty fine given that you have a lightly modded computer.

What does no$zoomer have to do with anything ?

I used pcsx2, but many lags and incompability.
My computer:
Processor: core 2 quad q9550
V board: Nvidia Geforce 8600
Ram 4gb
HD 320gb.
so it's need to be upgradeed for more compability with powerful pcs.

he asked what emulators doesn't lag and i just said that no$zoomer doesn't require much to run smoothly

Then you mean no$gba. The zoomer is just an addon.

Anything from the retro NES, SNES, GBA, arcades to psx would work without any problems on a pentium 4 1.8 GHz computer. No$gba varies but getting a full fps on a 3D game requires more ('bout 2.3 GHz I guess).
PS2 on the other hand requires more power. Running games on a decent FPS (around 30-40) requires a dual core 2.6 or more and a good video card, that's just during still shots. Big slowdown occurs during heavy rendering animations. (Imagine Yuna from FFX summoning Ixion + exploding effects).
If you have a fairly decent computer I suggest getting a Dreamcast or maybe a Gamecube emulator.

For game cube we got DOLPHIN, that work with Nintendo Wii as well.

But Dolphin has heavy requirements as well !
