| PC Status | Overall this PC is performing below expectations (27th percentile). This means that out of 100 PCs with exactly the same components, 73 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 good single core score, this CPU can easily handle the majority of general computing tasks. 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 67.8%, this CPU's suitability for 3D gaming is above average. |
| Graphics | 17.5% is a below average 3D score (RTX 2060S = 100%). This GPU can handle older games but it will struggle to render recent games at resolutions greater than 1080p. (Note: general computing tasks don't require 3D graphics) |
| Boot Drive | 70.5% is a good SSD score. This drive enables fast boots, responsive applications and ensures minimum system 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. |
Very high background CPU (37%). High background CPU reduces benchmark accuracy. How to reduce background CPU.
