Is the Graphics Card in this Gaming Laptop "Gimped"

[coper210]

I have been looking around for a good asus gaming laptop and I found an almost perfect one at best buy but I keep hearing things about how the gaming laptops at best buy have "gimped components" and I was wondering if this is true, I will provide other links to different asus gaming laptops I am looking at, tell me which one you think is better. I do not want to waste my money on a laptop that is possibly "gimped" and please let me know what you think I should do!

Here is the possibly "gimped" laptop

What do you mean by 'gimped'?
The one from best buy is fine.

Gimped as in underclocked and cheaper card resulting in a slower and bad quality card.

Companys do that sometimes not the retailer.
