Despite its good single core score this processor isn't appropriate for workstation use due to its relatively weak multi-core performance. Finally, with a gaming score of 63.9%, this CPU's suitability for 3D gaming is above average.
Boot Drive56.3% is a reasonable SSD score. This drive enables fast boots and responsive applications.
