Hello,
I already have a gaming PC where I play Dolphin and it runs very well (Core i5 4670K + GTX 760). My last notebook was stolen and now I'm looking for a new one. This Asus model is good on Dolphin? I already know, it's a ultra low voltage CPU and not as good as normal mobile ones.
This model seems to be only available in Brazil: http://www.asus.com/br/Notebooks_Ultrabo...fications/, and costs here US$ 846.
Specifications:
*Processor: Core i7 3517U 1.9GHz (2.8GHz 2-cores turbo);
*Memory: 6GB DDR3;
*Video Card: GT 740M 2GB GDDR3 (aparently, the faster GK107 128 bit version);
*Storage: 1TB 5400 rpm HDD + 24GB mSata SSD;
*Screen: 14'' LED 1366x768p.
Will it be able to run less demanding games like Super Smash Bros. Brawl at full speed with two players? And more demanding games like Starfox Adventures? It will be possible to raise the graphics? I will be using a Themaltake 23cm fan cooling base too, but not all the time.
I could also choose an Asus X550LN-BRA-DM549H, with a 15.6'' Full HD LED screen, Core i5 4210U, 8GB memory, 750GB HDD and Geforce GT 840M for US$ 793. The performance is pretty much the same? Which one would you buy?
