Zelda Games - Slow Combat

I've tried basically every combination of settings but whenever I enter combat on any Zelda game I have access to, it lags heavily during combat. For example in Twilight Princess, even just hitting a dummy I see frame skips though the FPS stays at 30 and VPS stays at 60 so I'm not sure why I'm seeing it. The same thing goes with WindWaker. I feel like my computer should be able to run these games as nothing else has even come close to lagging (Luigi's Mansion, Super Mario sunshine, Melee, Mariokart, Pokémon XD, etc.)

Specs:
Cpu: Intel Core i5 4200U @ 1.60 GHz 2.30 GHz
Gpu: GeForce GT 740m
Ram: 8.00GB
OS: Windows 10
Dolphin: 5.0-rc-27 (Though I've also tried the latest stable release)
This is my laptop by the way.

This is your problem.
Do you know what a bottleneck is?
Windows 8.1 64bit
Intel i7-3630m 2.4GHz-3.2GHz
Nvidia GT 630m 1gb
8GB Samsung (2x4gb)
Dolphin: 4.0-7568/5.0R25/3.5/4.0

Oh...I assumed my CPU would have been fine. Can't really replace it so I guess there's no other way to really play these Zelda games? Unless I try Overclocking it which is something I've never really looked in to

Umm, no. Zelda games tend to actually stop when your sword hits something. It's artistic or something. Unless you actually see the FPS/VPS drop, the actual game would do that on console. If you're seeing less frames than normal, look into vsync + exclusive fullscreen.

You can't overclock a mobile ULV CPU. And even if you did you'll blow the CPU faster than Link can swing his sword at an enemy.

Well in this case, wouldn't that take quite some time, then?

Yes, it was a rhetorical comment. But it wouldn't hurt to experiment and see how long it takes before then if the OP would like to try it out.
