Graphics0.68% is too low to play 3D games or use CAD packages. (Note: general computing tasks don't require 3D graphics)
Boot Drive27.6% is low SSD score. With a better SSD this system will boot faster, make applications more responsive and reduce IO wait times.

OS VersionAlthough Windows 10 is not the most recent version of Windows, it remains a great option.
