Hello! Does anyone out here have a Lenovo Yoga 700 with such or similar specs?

i5-6200u
8gb ddr3 ram
940m 2gb ddr3
hard drive doesn't matter
14" 1080p screen

How is gaming on this device? (i'm looking at overwatch mainly, but how do other games work at 768p?) What about heating? i've heard that it has some throttling problems, heats up fast and i want to know if it's true.

Thanks in advance.

This link should answer your question on performance (scroll down a bit for the games and different resolutions, and Overwatch is one of them): http://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-GeForce-940M.138027.0.html

Regarding thermal throttling, it depends on how good the cooling is. On my previous gaming laptop with a dedicated GPU, I never came across the issue. But I also ensured it was elevated a little off the desk to maximize the bottom-feeding air intake.

Oh, i must have missed that part about heat in the webpage, thanks! seems like "The Yoga 700 does a good job of dealing with heat".
