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 71.7%, this CPU's suitability for 3D gaming is good.
Graphics129% is an outstanding 3D score, it's the bee's knees. This GPU can handle almost all 3D games at very high resolutions and ultra detail levels.
Boot Drive55.9% is a reasonable SSD score. This drive enables fast boots and responsive applications.

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