A simple answer, you can not play well game FFXII with specs like that except your cpu dualcore at.3ghz or for the best at.4ghz and have good grapich card and NOT an onboard. But now the question is we meet in the world the laptop in that clock?, maybe in 2011 year and not in present day or anyone can overclock cpu in the laptop?

laptops are generally weaker than pcs so you won't get good performance, especially with an onboard graphics card.

If you want a laptop just to be able to play PCSX2 then you will need one with a very fast CPU clocked at 3GHz or more and a powerful graphics card like an 8800GT or 9800GT.
And such laptops are very expensive.
That laptop maybe able to play pc games but not pcsx2.

One more, Do not see well performance or not about computer or laptop depend in Brand name (Asus, Thosiba, Acer etc) because that is pure related to Hardware and not the brand name. *sigh*

Lappy with Core2Duo clocked at around 3GHz should be enough, but your video will have to support DX10+ hardware... Then it's possible.
Personally I think it's not wise to buy a laptop for PCSX2...

Don't know what do they fit laptops with these days, but lappy videos are generally much weaker than their older brothers with shared memory to inflict alot of pain on your system when running games at high resolutions etc...
