Ultra-low voltage CPUs are not a good option when it comes to Dolphin.Well... I kinda have a limited budget for the new laptop... and the ones that have a 4xxx MQ Haswell cost a bit more. (and the cheapest one I found has a GPU that shouldn't be as good as the HD 8850M (by that, I mean the GT 740M).
Oh, and before playing, set OpenGL as the video backend and enable Vertex Streaming Hack (lucky you), since that brings speedups.
It´s not that the hack will make the game to run at fullspeed but it can shut the lags down a bit.
