Im planning on getting a cheap but decent laptop for gaming. I have my eyes set on a Asus G51jx that i know will handle easily the most recent games... but im unsure about dolphin...
Anyway, here are the specs. What can i expect ? I want to try the Zelda games, maybe starfox even.

Intel Core i7-720QM
Nvidia Geforce Gts 360m 1gb ddr5

It won't work well with dolphin . Search the forum !!!
That i7 clock speed is too slow to begin with , not even an i7 740qm can do well
It can play some "light" games or 2D games like NSMB , Muramasa , Zelda WW(maybe) , Star Fox Assault ...if turbo boost raise CPU clock speed to 2.4ghz (Dolphin uses 2 cores)
