THE ARTICLE IS TO BE COMPLETED SORRY!

CORRECTION: 0:15 – THE CLEAN SSD IS a SAMSUNG 860* EVO

I have 9 Games to benchmark and 4 CPU benchmarks. All of these benchmarks are in 1080p, with overall comparisons given at the end of the video. I will compare a fresh clean windows install performance compared to a used ‘dirty’ windows install.

• Vsync is off
• Nvidia Low Latency is off, but if it’s turned on,  I will let you know on the graph.

• Ray Tracing is off
• REBar is On
• All Games Benchmarked on a 3-game Average (EXCEPT FOR CINEBENCH 2024 WHICH IS USING A 1 RUN AVERAGE)
