I wish I knew how to use Dolphin. I probably would play it on that.


This.

Can anyone tell me if it will run on my laptop?  I have an i7 with 8GBs of RAM, but unfortunately an Intel graphics card. It runs TF2 @ 1280x960 close to 60 fps, so it's not a total piece of crap.

definitely not without a decent graphics card. Also Dolphin is very CPU heavy, chances are a laptop i7 (I'm guessing sub 2.0 GHz?) wouldn't cut it for most games. Maybe some older ones at lower settings. Another thing to remember is that it only supports dual cores, so four cores are useless here. If you can get some kind of utility that can directly control your Turbo Boost so that the cpu has only two cores working at a higher clock then it might be worth it to install Dolphin (after you upgrade your GPU that is).


It's an M620 @2.67GHz and I don't think the GPU is upgradable.  Even it it were, it's a company laptop and I doubt modifying the hardware would go over too well with my boss.
