I guess it's time to show people here that this AMD chip can actually play some games pretty well with Dolphin.
Dolphin 3.0-432 - 64-Bit (or later).

Take note of what your numbers are before changing them so they can be put back.
Go to the P-state section, select the P0, then the FID drop down menu can be set to the number that sets the speed to 2000, or you could go to 2100 or 2200 (the number will be different from your laptop to mine if you're on an A4 or A8, so I can't say what it is), hit apply. Play some games, check your temps often. If you get too far above 80C, stop playing and let it cool down. When you're done playing, set the P0 FID back to what is was originally. If you feel like it, post some game speed shots of before and after with the fps difference (Mario Galaxy probably won't benefit much, but other games will). I have no idea what the long term or even the short term affects of doing this will be, so it's your call. You can think about going to 2.3GHz if you like as well, but that's up to you. Don't let it get too hot!
I'm going to run all games at 2.2GHz for these tests and fps is uncapped.
These are just some reminders:
1) Check your temperatures
2) Check your temperatures
3) Check your temperatures
4) Keep the laptop plugged in and set the power options to high performance
5) Don't change anything else outside of the P0 area (if you don't know, don't touch it)
6) When you're done, set the P0 back to where it was originally
Dolphin settings:
1) Use DX9
2) Use EFB to Texture
3) Set the frame limit to off, no limit for now
4) Check off "skip EFB access from CPU" and "ignore format changes"
5) Set the Internal Resolution to 1x for now (no AA), use this for getting your max IR level http://forums.dolphin-emu.org/showthread.php?tid=20712

There are plenty more. I'm not saying all games run well, but a lot do.
