Processor | With a below average single core score, this CPU can handle email, web browsing and audio/video playback but it will struggle to handle modern 3D games or workstation tasks such as video editing. Finally, with a gaming score of 39.6%, this CPU's suitability for 3D gaming is poor. |
Graphics | 2.38% is too low to play 3D games or use CAD packages. (Note: general computing tasks don't require 3D graphics) |
Boot Drive | 32.2% is low SSD score. With a better SSD this system will boot faster, make applications more responsive and reduce IO wait times. |
Memory | 8GB is enough RAM to run any version of Windows and it's sufficient for the vast majority of games. 8GB is also enough for moderate file and system caches which result in a very responsive system. |
OS Version | Although Windows 10 is not the most recent version of Windows, it remains a great option. |
