Performance

This device can be throttled and have very bad performance, even if setting on BIOS the Ultra Performance option.

Installing and enabling thermald seems to fix the issue, allowing the processor to reach higher speeds, while also running on higher CPU temperature.

Accessibility

The appearance of the BIOS is pretty simple and not very colorful, so it might work well with OCR software. However, it requires the user to use a mouse.

Note: Blind users should request the help of a sighted person to change firmware settings.
