How to Run Computer Performance Benchmark Test on Windows 10 [Tutorial]
The Windows 10 Assessment Tool tests the components of your computer (CPU, GPU, RAM, etc.) and then measures their performance. The tool can only be run from a Windows 10 command prompt or PowerShell instance, and either of those must be opened with administrative rights.
Benchmarking gives you a well-defined overview of the internals on your PC. It’s quite important to know everything about your PC: hard drive performance, RAM size, processor speed, GPU performance, etc. Whether you’re overclocking your computer or comparing it to another computer, benchmarking can help you translate your computer’s performance into numbers.
There is a wide array of benchmarking applications for the Windows ecosystem of which most are free. Before using any of the benchmarking software listed in this tutorial, make sure nothing else is running on your computer. Running user applications and processes can slow down the benchmark and change the results. In this tutorial, we’ll look at a few benchmarking software applications you can use to test the performance of your Windows PC.
This how-to tutorial shows you how to access and use the Windows 10 Assessment Tool to measure your computer's performance.
This tutorial will apply for computers, laptops, desktops, and tablets running the Windows 10 operating system (Home, Professional, Enterprise, Education) from all supported hardware manufactures, like Dell, HP, Acer, Asus, Toshiba, Lenovo, and Samsung.
