Got any performance recommendations for my stinky laptop?

Acer Aspire 5560 (15")
Windows 7 64-bit/Debian Jessie 64-bit
AMD A6-3400M APU
ATI Radeon HD 6520G
About 4gb. RAM; brand unknown

Don't use the Open Source drivers. That's all you can do

I don´t really know a lot of AMD, but the thing with them is they aren´t very recommended with Dolphin as they tend to have poor performance using the emulator since their individual thread performance (I think that´s what it is) is very behind, and this is what Dolphin mainly relies on. I don´t know what games you could run with it but if possible I would recommend you to go for an Intel CPU if you want better performance using the emulator

Unfortunately, I don't have enough money to buy a new laptop, and as far as I know you can't change graphics cards or processors on laptops.

You won´t have good chances with -any- game on that CPU. Mine (A6-1450) struggles even when trying Luigi´s Mansion and on minimal settings.
