Dolphin Specs - Aeolus_Overdrive - 02-14-2011

Hey I'm looking to buy a new laptop and I want to know what sort of specs are required to emulate gamecube games at full speed.

My current laptop's specs are:

Intel® Core™ i3 370M 2.4Ghz (3MB Cache)
4GB Dual Channel Memory (2x 2GB DDR3)
1024 MB ATI Mobility Radeon™ HD 5730
320GB SATAII 7,200RPM

So I need to know what i should be looking to upgrade when i go shopping

Nothing will guarantee all games will run at fullspeed. Many heavier games will not run at fullspeed on any laptop no matter how good.

Keeping that in mind that is a very good laptop, perfectly capable of running most games well.
