PC Status	Overall this PC is performing below expectations (29th percentile). This means that out of 100 PCs with exactly the same components, 71 performed better. The overall PC percentile is the average of each of its individual components. Use the charts in the benchmark sections of this report to identify problem areas.
Processor	With a relatively low single core score, this CPU can handle email, light web browsing and basic audio/video playback, but it will struggle to handle CPU intensive tasks. Finally, with a gaming score of 33.1%, this CPU's suitability for 3D gaming is poor.
Boot Drive	22.4% is an extremely low SSD score, this system will benefit from a faster SSD.
Memory	2GB is enough RAM to run any version of Windows however a minimum of 4GB is recommended for gaming or any other RAM intensive tasks such as photo/video editing. This system will also be a little more responsive with 4GB of RAM.
OS Version	Although Windows 10 is not the most recent version of Windows, it remains a great option.

Very high background CPU (80%). High background CPU reduces benchmark accuracy. How to reduce background CPU.
