Well, when you put the same cpu's in laptops as desktops, I do expect the same speed.

Unless I had a mac pro or something....

But there's two problems:
1.) The problem of increased heat, and
2.) The problem of increased electrical (battery) usage, which also leads to heat

See if you can get a used MacBook for a good deal.

Increased heat, a blessing in disguise:
3.) Warms up 'clocked' laptops so they can be used to make melted cheese sandwiches without stopping working / viewing pawn.
4.) Warms up sensitive bits if genuinely used as a laptop so thankfully contributes to sterility of the younger generation (although not as effective as castration caused by the over-heated battery exploding).
