The processor makes it fast overall.
The video card makes it fast when using graphics.
The RAM makes it fast when opening several applications at once.
So all of the above

Dunklengend already covered what makes laptops fast/slow so im just showing whats out there.
No you dont have to get a Toshiba laptop but they make some good laptops.
Hope this helps.
