Well I read the intro post to this thread, which says "Laptop Processors:
We do not recommend the use of any laptop machines on the emulator unless otherwise mentioned above, if it supports SSE2 then it may work. if it does not have SSE2 then it is likely it will be extremely slow and have emulator compatibility problems." but since my laptop is new I wasn't sure if it would still apply.
It runs an i7 at 1.60GHz but can run up to 2.80GHz which supports SSE4.2. The graphics card is a Moblity HD 5780. So my question is will I be able to play four games I own on the road (Final Fantasy X & XII, Kingdom Hearts I & II [all of which are versions which are compatible according to the compatibility list) with this laptop and if so, will I need to speed up the processor or can I get by at 1.6GHz? Thanks for the help.

you will HAVE to speed it up, to at least 2.2 (FF12 is the main problem) the others whould be ok with some speedhacks.

turbo mode probably won't work right
