Since my laptop runs 80 percent of PS2 games between 25 to 45 fps(in Software Mode), I want to buy a new laptop that fully supports some heavy/slow games like [Gran turismo 4, Shadow of the colossus, Metal gear solid 3 and ...]
So which laptop in the market is the best choice for emulation of PS2 game?Unsure
[I don't want to buy a desktop pc because I want to have my pc everywhere I go]

I can pay 1800 to 2200 $.
Now which laptop is the best choice for PS2 emulation?
Unsure
Simply put, the highest number i5-3xxx CPU you can find with the highest number GTX6xx GPU you can find.

Something like this (obviously not this because it's out of stock atm)

Anything with these processors and any of these GPUs will run a lot (if not all games) at max FPS. Have a look around American shops and you'll find something like this easily.
the highest possible is i7-3520M w/ basic speed of 2.9Gs

don't try to get the "QM" models almost all of them has very low on basic clock speed and hi-temps potential.
Thank you all.
Now I can make a better decision.

No problems with high temps or "low" speeds on my end.
well you can pay up to $2200 why not spend a few bucks and buy the Digital Storm X17E i know the looks is not much but the performance much better than other gaming laptops

Thank you "devilscorner", may be I buy your recommended laptop.
Which factor is more important in PS2 emulation?
A. Powerful CPU
B. Powerful GPU
C. Having lots of RAM
