User Bench test ?

[🆂🆃🅸🅶🅶🅰]

I have 2 computers both identical specs , 1 on Win 10 , 1 on Win 11 , the PC on Win 11 loads games very fast the PC on Win 10 is hope less so i ran User Bench test on it and this is the result the SSD is slow - results
serBenchmarks: Game 92%, Desk 97%, Work 84%
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600 - 99%
GPU: Nvidia RTX 3060 - 91.3%
SSD: Kingston SA400S37960G 960GB - 45%
RAM: Kingston HyperX DDR4 3200 C16 2x8GB - 74.9%
MBD: Gigabyte GA-B550 GAMING X V2
I know about enabling XMP for the ram but ? the SSD is use less ?
I ordered a preloaded new one the last 1 i got from the same person is great .

Could be a firmware issue. See if there is an update.

But even without the buggy firmware, it still is a cacheless SSD, so its performance will always be abysmal in IO heavy tasks.
That the controller only has two NAND channels doesn't help it either.

Yes thanks again every one , i did not know about this Kensington stuff , which is the best SSD make out there , trouble is with the new one i ordered i may lose a lot of " paid for software" as i miss placed some license keys

What folks need to stop looking at with SSDs since they gotten faster is just the read/write speeds. Look at the IOPS and look into what is good for that and what it does and means, cause that matters the most. And never buy Cache-less SSDs. Once their cache runs down low the SSD comes to a crawl if doing a lengthy sustained write. It can't replenish that cache until that write process is over. Do not run OS + Games off of a single SSD, get at least 2x SSDs.

Thanks a million i did not know about running Games + OS my SSD now does run @ a crawl

That test is meaningless. The % score is a load of malarkey both statistically and from an IT benchmark standpoint..You test to look at actual scores. A test like Passmark is better. You can then compare things correctly. Or read a trusted review where this has been done for you -.

"performance that drops rapidly once the drive is over 25% full"

Thanks Hawkeye , but i tell you my SSD is gone it takes 4 minutes to load a game like Sniper Elite 4 , i looked at the read write speeds via task manager and it`s use less , don`t forget as well that games with Denuvo protection can cause problems, my other PC same specs with a new SSD loads game in seconds.
