Surface Pro 2
Inte Corel i5 2.30 GHz x4
Micro Center 16 GB MicroSD on Lexar USB3.0 "Blue" MicroSD Reader
I do a nice swap trick when I get the searching for Android x86 I remove the MicroSD card from USB and insert it into the built-in reader so I can enjoy the use of the official docking station. Only drawback is that the Ethernet port doesn't operate with RemixOS and WiFi from the tablet keeps dropping.

An installed version (32 GB SSD) of Remix OS beta runs successfully on a Lenovo T400 (CPU: Intel Core(TM)2 Duo P8400, Intel Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller). Videos are shown with BSPlayer, Whatsapp runs, Skype starts and stops one second later - Problem with the graphics?
Older 32Bit IBM/Lenovo notebooks do not run with Remix OS beta 32Bit (2016-03-01): T40, T42, T43, R51. They run until the prompt of the root terminal, but do not switch into graphics mode needed for the rest of the booting process.
A Lenovo T61 runs with Remix OS beta 32bit, but not absolutely stable.

ASUS A46CB-WX024D laptop
Intel Core i5-3317U (1.7 GHz)
Intel HD 4000 and NVIDIA GeForce 740M (Optimus)
4GB RAM, 500GB HDD
Works great, with AnTuTu score of 125k. Even multitouch on the touchpad works, including gestures, but works terribly with the file manager.

About 18 months ago I tried to install Androidx86 directly onto my sole laptopn, an Acer Aspire 1410 (2011 I think), single core netbook, but a decent one at that.
I'm pretty dran good at making/breaking things, but this time I screwed up and lost my Windows OS, with Android never working. Then life's dramas took over, and fixing it became low-priority.
But I needed a laptop again and, right on time, Remix OS drops, and right now I have my old faithful laptop back, running my favourite OS (I really just do not need Windows anymore).
Sadly, I'm limited to running it off USB2, and I've not found a clever way of installing it to the HDD without an initial copy of Windows to work off.

Use Universal USB Formatter with a non-Linux installation method install to local drive then use rmxtools to expand the data image to whatever size you want. Then you Acer boot to RMX OS.

I try to use it on my Acer Aspire Switch 10e, aka "sw3-013 11hm"
atom z3735f quad core 1.33
2gb ram
intel hd graphics
sd card reader
1 usb 3 port on the Keyboard dock

it should be some of the best machine to use this windowed android experience, except right now it is a pain in the ass to make it work with bigger space than standard 4gb data img, because it is one of those 32bit uefi/32bit windows on 64bit capable system...

what doesn't work (the most important first, less important at the end):
sound (realtek)
full power management (sees battery and consumption but not seeing charge, and no sleep)
bluetooth (realtek)
gyro (no rotation)
