If you can be bothered, do this benchmark too... (it's the most relevant benchmark for me, lol).

Probably not. Even if you can get it working under emulation (which I somewhat doubt), you still don't want to do it like that, because emulation is inefficient, and will make your benchmark results much worse than it should be.

But why get rid of Windows? You got it with the machine right, then that's a legal copy of Windows that you probably paid money for. Delete and you wasted money...

And yeah, congrats.

Yeah, do that.  + windows is good for playing games, considering you bought a gaming laptop.

Nice laptop there.
Probably rather big/heavy and battery can't last too long, but it's for performance anyway :P
