Oh, I would, I would, because I find this benchmark very interesting but the source file is not mine so I hesitate...

Posting a source link to OCnet would be fine

Anyway, can you please answer me the following? :)

- Is your system overclocked, and if so, what's your max CPU and Uncore (cache) frequencies?

CPU at 4.5, cache 4.2

- What is your version of Office (Excel), and is it 32 bit or 64 bit?

Office 2016proplus version 1710 build 8625.2132C2R 64 Bit

- What are your primary RAM timings?

DRAM 3200 16-18-18-38-1T

I trust that your System Specs are fully updated.

I think they are

- Do you happen to know something similar for MS Word and Access?

No, but I will look around for something similar

Thank you, and sorry for the off-topic :)

No worries, we always go off topic

Isn't PC mark 8 pretty much an office (not MS office) applications test, with Photoshop, Adobe, graphics and MS office tests? You know, the one we all hate to run?

Yes, and it takes forever, not a minute-3 minutes

I think one of the issues with PCMark 8 is you are supposed to have the programs they are testing installed, ie if they are testing Photoshop you need photoshop installed. I think it will still run, you just won't like the score. :)

Yeah, I have never been a fan of PCMark. I think they actually use a version of open office or libre that is built in with the bench

I think I ran it 1 time.

One reason some may dislike PCMark is it doesn't pay homage to the GPU. This is a more an overall system test than a GPU test.

That said, I could never get PCMark 10 to run under my previous install. With a clean install of FCU, I might give it another go sometime soon.
