Gaming 4% Tree trunk	Desktop 27% Raft	Workstation 3% Tree trunk


PC Status	Overall this PC is performing way below expectations (6th percentile). This means that out of 100 PCs with exactly the same components, 94 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 an extremely low single core score, this CPU can barely handle email and light web browsing. Finally, with a gaming score of 27.3%, this CPU's suitability for 3D gaming is very poor.
Graphics	2.27% is too low to play 3D games or use CAD packages. (Note: general computing tasks don't require 3D graphics)
Boot Drive	8.52% is an extremely low SSD score, this system will benefit from a faster SSD.
Memory	8.01GB is enough RAM to run any version of Windows and it's more than sufficient for nearly all games. 8.01GB also allows for very large file and system caches, software development and batch photo editing/processing.
OS Version	Although Windows 10 is not the most recent version of Windows, it remains a great option.

Very high background CPU (100%). High background CPU reduces benchmark accuracy. How to reduce background CPU.
