Finally, with a gaming score of 59.5%, this CPU's suitability for 3D gaming is average.
Boot DriveThe boot partition is located on a mechanical or hybrid drive. Moving the system to an SSD will yield far faster boot times, better system responsiveness and faster application load times.

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