After firguring out that not one single board computer is good enough to run pcsx2, I put emulationstation and Ubuntu on my other PC, it would've been nice and worked perfectly, but for some reason 64 bit cannot run pcsx2 on emulationstation. So what do I do now? All I want is a little emulationstation console/pc for my kids to play games on. And no, I don't want to download pcsx2 on the computer on Windows and just turn on emulationstation when I need to, I want it to be more like a console. I usually use it via retropie, should I use recalbox or something?

Does regular pcsx2 work on that system? It might be a driver issue but I'm not sure if that system is capable of running ps2 games. Based on my own experience, a 1st i5 intel processor running faster than 3 GHz is needed for the best experience. Also I don't know if that quadro if enough to power those games. If regular Pcsx2 won't run the games you try at a decent framerate it would also be the system that is hindering.

You could have a linux installation like ubuntu or another distro and make Pcsx2 run on bootup. It wouldn't be the same as a real console but it would work. I don't think retroarch has support for pcsx2 but it can emulate a lot of other systems. What problem did you have with emulationstation specifically, was it that it didn't support 64-bit ubuntu or it couldnät run 64-bit pscx2?
