Some games are heavily demanding of the GS plugin, some games the HW renderer is very buggy, but the last thing we'd suggest is trying to play games at full speed with anything below a midrange gpu, the category in which the 630M falls in to (but it's mobile so that makes sense).
The only thing you can do with your laptop is make sure the power plan is set to "high performance".

Memory bandwidth is most important. Amount of VRAM is irrelevant. My 7850 has only 1 GB of VRAM yet it has 256 bit bandwidth and excellent architecture, and performs like a champ. hence, the 630M may not perform that well.

Hmmm, this was unknown to me, thank you for the info. Mine (630M) has 128-bit interface and 29 GB/s bandwidth and it is flawless on the PCSX2.

I can run pretty much any game on 2X rendering, and kingdom hearts on 3X.... except the in game MENU runs slowly there, and shadow of the colossus at native. But I have had 0 problems really with my 630M, other than the fact that I WOULD like to play on higher renderings.

Yes, menus seem to sometimes slow down on anything other than native, I have no idea why.

I was able to play kingdom hearts(both) and RE:chain of memories of course it was in high performance i figgled around with the GS enough for silent hill 3 to play at normal speed. It worked with hardware directx 10 native res. and no interlacing on ver. 0.9.8
completely off topic.
