The Celeron in that is an N3450 which is also an Atom design, so in reality it shouldn't be all that much faster if at all.

If we're including 15" laptops, then something like the Acer Aspire 3 A315-41-R0GH with a Ryzen 2200U would actually be in OP's budget (why are there no 13 to 14" laptops with this CPU?! seriously...). However, the dumb thing only comes with a single 4GB stick of RAM (no idea if that specific laptop can support 2x4GB RAM), a 768p screen, and no SSD.

At least in terms of the processor itself, the Ryzen 2200U should only be a bit slower CPU-wise if at all (since 4c/8t mobile Ryzen already turbos quite well, and this is a 2c/4t part which is fine for Dolphin) while the GPU would likely be around Intel UHD 630 level at worst but maybe more like ~30% faster than Intel UHD 630 on average (assuming that both are using the same memory configuration of course).
