Getting the most out of my laptop

So my laptop certainly wasn't made for gaming, and even worse for Dolphin from what I've learnt about how it uses cores. I first tried Dolphin on this same laptop 1.5 years ago, and nothing was playable (tried brawl/melee) but today was able to get both games running 60 fps, full screen 1366x768 resolution.

Operating System: Windows 10 x64 (Technical preview)
Processor/CPU: AMD A8 4555m
Video Card/GPU: Radeon HD 7600G
Memory/RAM: 4GB

This was right after I accidentally disabled Turbo Core, so currently locked at 1.6ghz, which I found odd. Most of the time my cores would hover around 1.8ghz so I thought I could change some settings and to boost 2 cores to 2.4ghz and assign Dolphin to those cores to see if I could get a performance boost. Now since I can't seem to change the setting to test this out I was wondering if anyone more knowledgeable could shed some light, as my knowledge of these things is minimal and I'm not sure if I would see a performance boost If I did somehow get turbo core to work again.
