PCMark 7 includes 7 PC tests for Windows 7, combining more than 25 individual workloads covering storage, computation, image and video manipulation, web browsing and gaming. Specifically designed to cover the full range of PC hardware from netbooks and tablets to notebooks and desktops, PCMark 7 offers complete PC performance testing for Windows 7 for home and business use.

The total score of 5,621 points is hard to analyse as PCMark 7 uses complex algorithms to calculate the final score. It isn't a simple case of ‘double score for RAID 0'.

Fallout 4 Anniversary

Fallout 4: Anniversary Edition announced for all systems (including Switch 2)

Just under 10 years ago, Fallout 4 officially released to the world. While the game is far from perfect, it resonated with millions thanks to its sandbox-like design and focus on exploration among other ancillary additions (such as the settlement mechanic and base building). As they have done with many of their previous games, Bethesda has now officially announced Fallout 4: Anniversary Edition – bundling the base game alongside its DLC and hundreds of user-created mods.

    Work well in RAID 0, but £800 was more than my last system cost. still we can dream, right?

    You missed a huge performance gain by not installing an intel rst version.
    rapid storage technology gives a boost to the low/mid size file transfer rates which really makes a windows based operating system fly.
    always only use the rst version from the boards download page along w/ being on the latest bios.
    one little glitch to know about; most times write back cache is disabled by default.
    open rst/click volume icon/toggle write back cache on/off/on.
    re-run the atto bench and look for the big performance gain.
