About: PCMark 7PCMark 7 is benchmark software designed by Futuremark (now UL Benchmarks) to measure the overall performance of Windows 7-based systems. This benchmark assesses various important aspects of computer performance with a primary focus on the overall user experience, rather than individual components such as the CPU or GPU.
Unlike other synthetic benchmarks that only test one specific aspect, PCMark 7 uses real-world usage scenarios to test system performance. This includes tests such as web browsing, image processing, video editing, light gaming, data encryption, and virus scanning. All these tests are organized into various test suites, including Lightweight, Productivity, Entertainment, Creativity, Computation, and Storage.
The final score from PCMark 7 reflects the system's ability to handle everyday workloads commonly used by home and professional users. Therefore, this benchmark is ideal for evaluating the performance of laptops, desktops, or workstations in real-world contexts, not just theoretical scenarios.
The advantage of PCMark 7 lies in its ability to test not only the CPU and GPU, but also storage performance (HDD/SSD), memory speed, and overall system efficiency. This makes it an ideal tool for comparing devices in the context of general productivity and multimedia consumption.
Although designed for Windows 7, PCMark 7 remains a relevant historical benchmark tool, especially when testing older devices or comparing older systems with newer ones for documentation, archiving, or research purposes.
Released in 2012 as part of the Brazos 2.0 family, the AMD E1-1200 is a power-efficient processor aimed at entry-level laptops. It has a 2 core and 2 thread configuration with a fixed clock speed of 1.4 GHz, with no support for Turbo Core technology. Built with a 40nm fabrication process, the E1-1200 has a TDP value of 18 watts-efficient enough for portable devices that emphasize low power consumption and longer battery life. Despite its limited performance, the E1-1200 was a popular choice in its day thanks to its affordable price and ability to handle light computing needs.
One of the main advantages of the AMD E1-1200 is the integrated Radeon HD 7310 GPU, which offers better graphics performance than Intel's entry-level graphics solutions at the time. This GPU has the ability to play HD resolution videos smoothly, as well as run light games such as Counter Strike 1.6, Plants vs Zombies, or other casual games with minimum graphics settings. That said, this combination of CPU and GPU is not intended for heavy-duty work such as video editing, 3D rendering, or modern gaming. Overall performance is more optimal when used for tasks such as browsing, streaming videos, accessing social media, typing documents, as well as basic office applications.
However, it should be noted that the AMD E1-1200 is less suitable for heavy multitasking, especially in modern operating systems like Windows 10. With a low clock speed and no Boost feature, users may experience lag or limitations when opening multiple applications at once. In tests using the HP 1000 1b05au laptop, this processor was paired with 4GB DDR3 single channel RAM (2 DIMM slots) and tested on Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 10 operating systems. The results show that the most optimal performance is achieved on Windows 7 or Windows 8, while in Windows 10 the system tends to be slow although it can still be used for basic needs. As such, the AMD E1-1200 can still be relied upon as a power-efficient and inexpensive solution for users with very light computing needs.
