Got it — you want to know roughly how many of these PS3 games would run at 55+ FPS on your Acer SmartChoice Aspire Lite (Ryzen 5 5625U, 16 GB RAM, 1 TB SSD) under Debian 12 XFCE using a PS3 emulator like RPCS3. Let’s break this down carefully.
1. Your laptop’s specs (emulator-relevant)
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5625U (6 cores / 12 threads, Zen 3, 2.3–4.3 GHz)
Good multi-core performance, but not as fast per-core as high-end desktop CPUs.
RAM: 16 GB → plenty for PS3 emulation.
GPU: Integrated Vega 7 (part of Ryzen 5 5625U)
This is integrated graphics, so heavier 3D PS3 games will be limited.
OS: Debian 12 XFCE
RPCS3 runs fine on Linux, but Vulkan/OpenGL support and drivers matter.
Implication:
Light/medium PS3 games → should run 50–60+ FPS.
Heavy 3D games (like The Last of Us, Demon’s Souls, Metal Gear Rising, Ni no Kuni, etc.) → likely under 40–50 FPS.
2. Rough PS3 emulation performance tiers
Game type Example from your list Likely FPS on your laptop
Light / 2D / stylized / cartoonish Lego Lord of the Rings, Puppeteer, South Park: The Stick of Truth, Dragon’s Crown, Majin and the Forsaken Kingdom 55–60+ FPS
Moderate 3D / older PS3 engines Darksiders, BioShock 2, Brutal Legend, Vanquish, Bayonetta 45–55 FPS; some may hit 55
Heavy 3D / open world Grand Theft Auto V, Red Dead Redemption, Fallout 3, Dark Souls, Borderlands 2, Metro: Last Light 25–45 FPS; likely <55
Racing / physics-heavy Burnout Paradise, Need for Speed, MotorStorm 40–50 FPS; some simple tracks may hit 55
Fighting / arena games SoulCalibur V, BlazBlue, Tekken, Street Fighter X Tekken 55–60+ FPS (fighting games are easier for CPU/GPU)
Hack-and-slash / linear action Bayonetta, Heavenly Sword, Asura’s Wrath, No More Heroes: Heroes’ Paradise 50–60 FPS likely
3. Rules of thumb
Stylized 2D or cel-shaded games → almost guaranteed 55+ FPS.
Single-character action / linear levels → likely 50–60 FPS.
Open-world 3D → generally won’t reach 55 FPS on integrated graphics.
Fighting / arena / side-scroller → very likely 55+ FPS.
4. Approximate count from your list
Your list has roughly 220+ games.
Using the above rules:
Light / fighting / linear 3D: ~110–120 games → should hit 55+ FPS.
Moderate 3D / racing: ~60–70 games → may hit 50–55 FPS.
Heavy open world / Metro-style graphics: ~40–50 games → likely <50 FPS.
So roughly about 50–55% of your list will run at 55 FPS or more on this laptop under Debian 12 with RPCS3, mostly fighting, linear action, platformers, stylized RPGs, and smaller 3D games.
✅ Key takeaway:
Your Ryzen 5 5625U is solid for light-to-moderate PS3 games, but heavy open-world games like GTA V, Red Dead Redemption, and Metro: Last Light will probably run under 50 FPS even with optimizations.
If you want, I can make a full categorized table from your list marking which games are likely 55+ FPS, 45–55 FPS, and <45 FPS, so you know at a glance what will run smoothly.
