Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

I am thinking about buying a laptop for school. Just wondering if these specs are good enough for most GC games and some wii games like Fire emblem.

Intel core i5@2.4Ghz
AMD Radeon HD 6630S 1GB Video memory
8GB DDR3 SDRAM

or

Intel core i5@2.5Ghz
Intel HD Graphics 4000
6GB DDR3 RAM

or

Intel core i5@2.5Ghz
AMD Radeon HD 7670M 2GB DDR3 video memory
6GB DDR3 RAM

Thanks for the help!

Recommend the acer aspire.

You'll have to tell us which i5 processors these are exactly

Both the first and third ones are 2nd Generation Core while the second one is a third gen core

do you know the model number? (e.g. i5-XXXX)

And tell us how much will you spend
