This is an example
Generated from sample data to show the format — it is not a real laptop. A real report is produced by LaptopCheck Inspector running on the machine you are buying.
What this laptop is good for
Scored from what was measured on this machine, not from the model name. Three of the inputs — whether the memory really runs dual channel, what the drive really writes at, and how far the clock really falls under load — are the exact things that make two laptops with the same spec sheet perform differently.
Comfortable for everyday use.
- Chrome or Edge with 10–20 tabs, Office, Zoom or Teams, Netflix and YouTube at 1080p
- Boots in well under a minute and wakes instantly
- Battery at 71% of its original capacity — unplugged runtime is already well down on new.
Handles a busy desktop well.
- 30+ browser tabs alongside Teams, Outlook, Excel and Slack without swapping
- Screen sharing on a video call while other apps keep running
- Throttles under load, so a long call plus a big spreadsheet will get sluggish.
Fine for web and scripting work; heavy toolchains will hurt.
- VS Code, Git, Node, Python, a local database
- Docker with a few containers, or IntelliJ on a mid-size project
- Large C++ or Rust builds — expect minutes, not seconds
- A long build is exactly the sustained load this machine throttles under.
Workable for 1080p and photos, slow for anything bigger.
- Photoshop and Lightroom on JPEGs, light retouching
- 1080p editing in Premiere or DaVinci Resolve, with proxies for anything longer
- 4K footage — you will need proxy workflows, and exports will be slow
- An export is sustained load, which is where this machine slows down.
Esports and indies yes, modern AAA no.
- Esports and indies at 1080p — League of Legends, Rocket League, CS2, Valorant, Stardew Valley, Hades above 60 fps
- Older and lighter AAA at 1080p low — GTA V, Skyrim, The Witcher 3 around 30 fps
- Current AAA titles. Microsoft Flight Simulator only runs at 720p low
- Graphics class: modern integrated. These are performance classes, not guarantees — the same chip varies widely between chassis depending on its power limit and cooling.
- Clock drops 38% under load, so frame rates will fall away after the first few minutes. In a gaming laptop this usually means old thermal paste or a clogged fan.
These are performance classes, not benchmarks. The same chip runs very differently in a thin chassis with a low power limit than in a thick one — which is why the throttle test above matters more than the model number. If a score looks wrong for a machine you know well, the feedback link at the foot of this page is how the scoring gets better.

What nothing on this page can tell you
- Whether the laptop is stolen. Ask for the original receipt and check the serial above against the sticker on the base.
- Whether there is liquid damage or a past repair. Look at the hinges, smell the vents, check for mismatched or chewed screws.
- Whether the BIOS is password-locked. Reboot into setup yourself before paying — no software running inside Windows can see this.
