Unit 2 M3 and D2

The CPU score of a computer allows us to see how quickly a processor is able to perform specific calculations. This computer has a CPU score of 796. There is a couple of things you could do to improve this score, one being consolidating files on the hard drive. Another thing you could do is overclock your computer. Over clocking means changing the clock speed on the processor so that it runs faster than stated on the manufacturers specification. 

RAM is a type of computer memory which stores data, it stands for random access memory. It enables data to be easily assessed from random locations. This computer has a RAM of 6143MB. In order to improve this computers RAM you could delete unnecessary files from the computer which means you have more storage space. Another thing you could do is add a second hard drive for extra memory. A bigger hard drive would be 1tb and the price of this ranges from £40-£50. 

The hardware test for this computer was very low, the score was 18. To improve this you could just install another hardrive or overclocking so he computer runs faster. 

The GPU score enables the user to see the power of the GPU. The score for this computer was 954, this is a very good score. If you wanted to improve this score you could add a RAM to boost it or update the drive and power settings. You could also update the graphics card with a newer card.
