Emulation Speed -> CPU job
Graphics (480p/720p/1080p) -> GPU job
But CPU must not bottleneck (pull down) the GPU and GPU must not bottleneck the CPU
Fast CPU (i3/i5/i7 @ 3.0GHz or higher) + Slow GPU (Intel HD 2000/3000/4000) -> Bad ending
Slow CPU (i3/i5/i7 @ 2.5GHz or slower) + Fast GPU (Nvidia GT 630M ,640M, 650M....) -> Bad ending
Fast CPU + Fast GPU -> Good ending
For example :
i5 430m and a Radeon HD 5650 -> Show CPU + Fast GPU
i7 2620m + HD3000 -> Fast CPU + Sh*t GPU
i7 2670QM + Nvidia GT 540M -> Fast CPU + Fast CPU
but all of them are craps atm
Listen to DefenderX's advice "Why don't you buy a gaming laptop with new Ivy Bridge CPU?" and buy a laptop that has either :
_i5 3210M , Nvidia GT 630M / 640M /650M
_i7 3610QM / 3630QM , Nvidia GT 630M / 640M /650M
then again , you should list the games you want to play . Seriously , you just waste your time since there are alot of demanding GC games : Metroid Prime , Fzero GX , Baten Kaitos + LLE ....
And how much you gonna spend for laptop
