Processor | With a relatively low single core score, this CPU can handle email, light web browsing and basic audio/video playback, but it will struggle to handle CPU intensive tasks. Finally, with a gaming score of 35.8%, this CPU's suitability for 3D gaming is poor. |
Graphics | 0.87% is too low to play 3D games or use CAD packages. (Note: general computing tasks don't require 3D graphics) |
Boot Drive | 24% is an extremely low SSD score, this system will benefit from a faster SSD. |
Memory | 4GB is enough RAM to run any version of Windows and although it's sufficient for most games, some will benefit from up to 8GB of RAM. 4GB is also enough for modest file and system caches which allow for a responsive system. |
OS Version | Although Windows 10 is not the most recent version of Windows, it remains a great option. |
