Processor	With an average single core score, this CPU can handle browsing the web, email, video playback and the majority of general computing tasks including light gaming when coupled with an appropriate GPU. Finally, with a gaming score of 57.1%, this CPU's suitability for 3D gaming is average.
Graphics	0.57% is too low to play 3D games or use CAD packages. (Note: general computing tasks don't require 3D graphics)
