Here is a Sneak Peek at those benchmark tests: - Exporting a 9 minute 4k Video with Premiere Pro - Dell XPS 15 - 22:03.85 - Temperature: 168 Degrees - CPU Usage: 20% CUK Barebones W650 - 9:34.1 - Temperature: 123 Degrees - CPU Usage: 33% - Saving a 4.6GB file from RAW to JPG - Dell XPS 15 - 49.6 CUK Barebones W650 - 56.35 - Read and Write Speeds - Dell XPS 15 - Write 683 MB/s - Read 1543 MB/s CUK W650 - Write 1408 MB/s - Read 869 MB/s The last thing I want to talk about is the build quality. I feel that the build quality of the CUK Barebones W650 is solid in its place in the budget category. It is difficult to compare a thin sleek MacBook Pro, Dell XPS 15, or Gigabyte Aero. You truly need to compare Apples to Apples. I am impressed with the assembly and choice of materials for this computer. One BIG feature that I find extremely suitable for graphic design from a performance standpoint is the thick profile. This allows for maximum breathing room for the fans and CPU to stay cool and run at peak performance. ------- Support My Channel With Patreon! ►►► ( https://www.patreon.com/bengkaiser ) SOCIAL Twitter ► @bengkaiser Facebook ►/bengkaiser Instagram ►@bengkaiser MY FAVORITE GEAR: (affiliate links) Camera ► http://amzn.to/2BWvE9o CamStand ► http://amzn.to/2BWsv9M Compute ► http://amzn.to/2zPeLvs Mouse ► http://amzn.to/2C0T9hq TubeBuddy ► https://www.tubebuddy.com/bengkaiser Host Gator ► http://bit.ly/2CBonPO ( Get 60% off Website Hosting with the link ) DISCLAIMER: ALL LINKS IN DESCRIPTION ARE AFFILIATE LINKS Thanks for Supporting Our Channel! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/bengkaiser/support
