I build my PC and ran passmark benchmark (http://www.cpubenchmark.net/)
when i received my result i notice my single core performance is up to average 2100 for i5-4590 single thread performance. however my multicore score is way below average, it was at 6784 (average for i5-4590 is 7200)
My question is, is this an inferior product and should I return it?
what other factor can affect the benchmark?
