About the heat up and slow down, I can get one of those external usb coolers since I'l playing mostly at home with the laptop pluged to the TV through HDMI and with a joypad. Do you think that, even with this control, I won't be able to play WW (I really only want this game) with a normal speed?
External coolers (usually ones you attach to the bottom of the laptop) won't reduce the amount of heat your laptop generates (at least not by a significant amount if it does at all). Unless that cooler or fan is actually pushing air onto the internal components (the parts that generate the heat) it's not going to be enough to counter the heat and thus won't prevent throttling. Heating is going to be an issue with the 3317U, but the 3230M should be fine since it's designed to take more heat and even if it does throttle, it will still be faster than the 3317U.
You might not be able to run Wind Waker with LLE audio, but HLE audio should be fine. HLE audio causes issues, so look at the Dolphin Wiki entry to find out more (and non-LLE audio solutions). I'm talking about the 3230M though. Wind Waker is very light on the GPU too, so you should be able to even do 2x IR (2x native resolution) easily. Note that if you do use HLE audio for this game, you have to manually set this not in the Audio settings, but by right-clicking Wind Waker in Dolphin's menu, going to Properties, and selection DSP HLE audio there.
