I just decided to buy a gaming laptop and hopefully I wish I can play PCSX2 and Dolphin with it.
I'm looking at these two models recently.
I only described cpu and graphic card to save the space.


Sparq GTXX73-BossMonster LV.73 (i7-2670QM 2.2GHz (upgradable to 2820QM), ATi Radeon HD6990m) about USD 17G, almpost 2G after upgrading the cpu

LG Xnote A520-PE50K (i7-2820QM, GeForce GT 540m) about USD 15G


I've seen recommended system requirements for PCSX2 and I need advise which one is wise choice for buying PC for emulators among two options below.

1. Concentrate on cpu, choosing much better cpu and a liitle bit better graphic card than recommendation

2. Concentrate on graphic, choosing much better graphic card andf a little bit better cpu than recommendation


Which one is wise answer? And please advise above two models are any good for PCSX2 and Dolphin.

Either system will do, I personally go with nvidia. As for your answer, I'd say 1. The better the cpu, the better the emulation. Multip cores over 2 will not help at the moment but the speed will make a huge difference. You certainly want a fast video, but its not as important as the cpu.
