Hey,

I´m gonna buy a new laptop and want to play Super Mario Galaxy 2, Paper Mario TTYD and Metroid 1 and 2 on it.

The following three are put on the shortlist:

1. Dell Inspiron 15 5570
Intel i7-8550U 4x 1.80 GHz (up to 4.00 GHz)
AMD Radeon 530 GDDR5 4096MB
8GB DDR4 (PC4-19200, 2400MHz)
Win10 Home x64

2. Dell Vostro 15 5568
Intel i7-7500U 2x 2.70GHz (up to 3.50 GHz)
NVIDIA GeForce 940MX 4096MB
8GB DDR4 (PC4-19200, 2400MHz)
Win10 Pro x64

3. Lenovo Ideapad 330-15ICH 81FK0040GE
Intel i5-8300H 4x 2.30 GHz (up to 4.00 GHz)
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 2048MB
8GB DDR4 (PC4-19200, 2400MHz)
Win10 Home x64

After reading https://dolphin-emu.org/docs/faq/?nocr=true#which-cpu-should-i-use I am unsure if option 1 and 2 are good enough because of the U-Series cpu, but on the other hand option 3 has only 2048MB memory on the gpu. Altough the faq states that more than two cores (almost) does not affect the speed, option 2 is inferior to option 1 with 4 cores and TurboBoost to 4.00GHz imo.

Are all three good enough for smoothless emulating these games?

Best regards,
Mokuyobi
