I know my processor is weak, so it prolly won't run at 60 FPS all the time, but will I be able to play it through entirely without major problems?

Also, this is the correct section to post this in, right? <<;
Should be playable, but be sure to check your temps with CoreTemp/Realtemp. This is not a gaming notebook and normal notebooks overheat easily when you play with Dolphin Wink
I have never payed attention to CPU temps when emulating before >>; Is there any temperature I should watch out for, and is there any way to ensure it doesn't overheat, maybe by modifying something within dolphin itself? D:
If your notebook overheats -> CPU will throttle the clock speed (in most cases) -> In Dolphin, a game will run very slowly.

New Thermal Compound (e.g. Arctic Cooling MX-4) and a notebook cooling pad.


welp, no idea how to apply thermal compund D: Guess I will have to go with a cooling pad.
Is there any particular brand I should go for, something that will work well with my HP DV6?
