Please note that the very fast category has been eliminated for laptops which changes the numbers for the categories.

Category 1: Extremely Fast

-Intel Core i7 Mobile
-Intel Core i5 Mobile

Category 2: Fast
These cpus are fast enough to run most games at fullspeed with HLE audio, especially when overclocked.
-Intel Core i3 Mobile

Category 3: Moderate/fast
Inbetween moderate and fast. Faster than category 4 but slower than category 2.
-Intel Core 2 Extreme Mobile
-Intel Pentium
-AMD Phenom II

Category 4: Moderate
These cpus run most games at fullspeed with HLE audio if they are heavily overclocked. But at stock speeds they may have have trouble.

Celeron m and sempron mobile have not been included because these are names that have been used for all low budget mobile cpus for Intel and AMD for 9 years (in the case of sempron mobile) and 13 years (in the case of celeron m). Some are very old and very slow. Others are very new and very fast. There is no way to distinguish them without the model number.

Netbooks and Nettops

All netbooks and nettops are too slow to run dolphin well. Don't even bother.

is the intel 2430m 2.4ghz with turbo boast up to 3.0ghz good to run dolphin?
