    Hello everyone. Just a question for anyone who has the A13R2 with the i7-6550u and is using the Graphics Amplifier.

    Have you noticed any bottleneck or lack of performance in gaming due to the processor? I can imagine having this laptop with a GTX1070 would be a beast but the processor might hold back some games.

    Any input is appreciated!

    I've seen this question many times. You could ask in the Amplifier's owners lounge, you'd get a lot more insight there. As far as I've read, there's none.
