Hi,

I'm going to be getting a new laptop and I'm wondering if these specs are good enough to run Dolphin smoothly. Two options:

Core i5-3317U with GeForce GT 630M 1GB, 4GB RAM
Core i7-3517U with GeForce GT 630M 1GB, 8GB RAM

Main games I want to play are Wind Waker, Twilight Princess (GC), Smash Bros. Melee, and Paper Mario: TTYD.

Are either of these setups good enough to play those games on 2xIR?

Thanks.
Yes, those games will run full speed most of the time with either of those.

This would be better.

(Should do 2.5x native.)

ULV processors perform poorly in Dolphin.

EDIT: I stand corrected.
