CPU is crucial for decent performance, but note it's a laptop so it's not always going to have optimal performance.
Make sure to get a 8750H or 9750H CPU as they're 6-core as opposed to 6700HQ and 7700HQ which are 4-core.

The laptop must have a dedicated GPU of some sort, NVIDIA or AMD.

Thanks for the quick reply. Just seeing this now. I have a lot to learn/consider if I am going to to this. I have an old Dell xps15z (Intel Core i5 2410M Sandy Bridge) that I had loaded NES,SNES, and PCSX2 on. When I tried to run NBA Street iso on it the game was pretty much unplayable. I tried Batman Begins and it ran so-so. Because of this I didn't try running RPCS3 on it. 

I just don't want to drop $2k on a laptop that won't be able to play the games I mentioned previously. Correct me if i'm wrong, what I have gathered so far it seems like (for my needs since I am not a high end gamer Big Grin ) I don't necessarily need to go with something like an NVIDIA GeForce 2060 video card. If I go with something with an i7 8750H or better hopefully I will be able to play the ps3 games I want to play w/o issue. I haven't gone through all of the game posts in your forums yet, but at a quick read it seems like I shouldn't entertain the thought of trying to play Last Of Us on a laptop. I think my son has a little crush on Ellie lol. 

If possible, could you explain a little further the part of not always having optimal performance on a laptop? Again thanks for the response. My apologies for replying late. Really gonna have to give this some thought. If i do pull the trigger I will def let you know how it turns out.
