This CPU is enough for school assignments as a low-budget laptop, but never for gaming. (Teclast F7 plus 3)

It is a decent CPU for web browsing and web games but that's about it. It can't really handle gaming and needs extensive help to really do anything well. The laptops that come with this CPU are borderline misleading as they are being advertised as powerful.
