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 69.9%, this CPU's suitability for 3D gaming is above average.
Boot Drive	60.4% is a good SSD score. This drive enables fast boots, responsive applications and ensures minimum system IO wait times.
