Looks good, but a little out of my budget unfortunately

Clock speed is not as meaningful as Dolphin benchmark results, because clocks do not mean the same thing about performance across generations and brands.

You will also want to have a good dedicated GPU, or at least, one which isn't too bad, or you'll be limited by your GPU. So avoid laptops with only an Intel integrated GPU.

So, I've found a Thinkpad with an i5-4300m processor and Intel HD 4600 graphics - is this likely to run Dolphin relatively decently? Again, I am not expecting to be able to play on high settings, I'd just want a good fps and no crashes
