Who it is for
Built for the question you actually have.
Seven kinds of visitor, each with what the report tells them and where a browser stops.
The same three minutes of measurement matter differently depending on what the machine is for. A gamer needs to know whether frame pacing still holds twenty minutes into a session. Someone buying a second-hand laptop needs to know whether the seller’s “runs perfectly” survives a sustained load. An IT team needs to know whether forty supposedly identical machines behave identically.
Each page below takes one kind of visitor and says which figures in the report answer their question, in what order to read them, and what a reasonable result looks like for that use. The test is the same in every case. What changes is which part of the report is the point.
Every page is equally clear about where a browser stops. It cannot read temperatures, fan speed or power draw, and it can tell you nothing about any machine other than the one you run it on. What it can do is measure what your machine actually sustains, and name the most likely reason when that falls away.
- GamersGreat for the first ten minutes. Then the frame rate slides.
- Refurbishers and resellersEvery machine passes a spec sheet. Not every machine passes ten minutes.
- Selling a laptop privatelyEveryone's listing says the same thing. Yours can show it.
- Repair shops“It's still slow.” Now you can show that it isn't.
- Fleets and contact centresFive hundred identical machines. They stopped being identical years ago.
- Hot rooms and hot countriesThe review was written in a cool room. You do not work in one.
- StudentsIt opens a browser fine. The question is the four-hour deadline.
- Remote and hybrid workersIt is fine at nine. By three it is unusable.
- Laptop ownersFast when it is cold. What does it hold when it is warm?
- Video and photo editorsAn export is a marathon. The spec sheet timed a sprint.
- DevelopersThe build is slow. Is it the code or the cooling?
- IT and support teamsThe user says it is slow. Measure it before you reimage it.
- Buying a used PCThree and a half minutes in the seller's browser. Before the money changes hands.
- New PC buildsIt posted. It boots. Does it hold?
