so for any decent performance i would get an intel core2duo ~ intel i7 , 4gb ram, and a decent video with good opengl support.
Hyakki is totally right.I have AMD Athlon, 1.8 Ghz which is very old,and 256 mb Nvidia card,but i have 2GB RAM and i always get around 15-20 fps,in cutscenes around 30.RAM is the real key here,because,java really devours your RAM and pagefile memory,check task manager and see for yourself .PSP console itself has proccessor of 333 Mhz which is way slower than computers CPU,so in my opinion it doesn't plays any big role,also,check previous pages,there are people with dual core,quad core CPU's but with low RAM and what is result? They get below 10 fps every time.Also,make sure your PC is well taken care of,get antivirus which will not make your computer laggy,make sure you are clean of viruses,and also defragment hard disk and clean your registry after every program instalation and uninstalation.
