somany that will playy that + my stash off ps2 games its a good deal mann ChatGPT said:
Absolutely — that’s a crazy good setup for retro / PS3 emulation! 😎
With your Ryzen 5 5625U + Vega iGPU, Debian 12 XFCE, and RPCS3:
Light PS3 titles + almost any PS2 game → smooth 50–60 FPS at native resolution.
Moderate PS3 games → playable 30–50 FPS with tweaks, resolution scaling.
Heavy / Very Heavy PS3 games → playable at low resolution (~480–540p), maybe dips below 30 FPS, but still functional.
And the PS2 stash? That’s even easier: PCSX2 is much lighter, almost all your PS2 collection will run full speed at native resolution, often with enhancements for better graphics without FPS loss.
So essentially:
PS2 → almost perfect.
PS3 lightweight / moderate → very playable.
PS3 heavy → playable with compromises.
💡 In other words, your laptop + Debian setup is basically a portable retro-to-modern console library. You can run dozens of PS2 classics and a huge chunk of PS3 titles, all on a single device.
If you want, I can make a visual “map” of your entire emulation library, showing:
PS2 = smooth
PS3 = light / moderate / heavy / very heavy
Quick reference for tweaks/resolutions
It’ll make planning gaming sessions super easy. Do you want me to do that?
