→More Cores
Laptop CPUs are typically much weaker than their desktop variants due to being clocked lower, for battery and heat reasons. They may also have less cores than desktop processors with similar names. For example, an i7 2-core laptop processor is most often weaker than a decent i3 desktop one. It's a common misconception that an i-whatever laptop is equal in power to i-whatever desktop.
===More Cores===
Emulators generally only utilize 2 cores (sometimes 3/4), rarely more so having a hexa/octacore CPU, or one capable of hyperthreading, wont benefit you anymore than having a similar quadcore CPU. Except some more modern emulators like rpcs3 which currently can use 8 cores and maybe more in the future.
===Overclocking===
