Source: PassMark / cpubenchmark.net, data provided by LA CLÉ INFORMATIQUE on October 30, 2026. Approximate reference scores for processor models, variable depending on the benchmarks; these are not results measured on the device sold. The i5-4590S is indeed the S model, distinct from the i5-4590.
Each chart has its own proportional scale starting from zero. The length of the bars does not compare from one chart to another. CPU Mark helps to locate multi-core processing; Single Thread provides another benchmark for less parallelized tasks. Score differences do not guarantee the same difference in every application. The i7-4770 serves only as a comparison: it is not installed in this PC.
✅ What it can do
- Emails, web searches and social networks.
- Word documents, Excel spreadsheets and common PowerPoint presentations.
- Reading, printing and organizing PDFs.
- Schoolwork, secretarial and light administrative management.
- Personal accounting or small professional files, with compatible software.
- Audio and video playback, depending on the content and connection.
⚠️ Its limits
- Integrated Intel HD Graphics 4600: not a configuration for recent AAA games.
- Not intended for professional video editing, 3D rendering or heavy processing.
- 128 GB SSD: the remaining space after Windows and software is limited for large collections of photos and videos.
- No native HDMI output.
- Intensive multitasking and large projects require more resources.
👥 For whom?
Families: a workstation for everyday emails and documents.
Students: research and writing assignments, depending on the requirements of school applications.
Small businesses: administrative workstation or backup computer.
Light remote work: office tasks; video calls require a suitable webcam and microphone, not included.
🎮 Games: realistic expectations
🟢 Light or older games
These are the uses to prioritize, depending on the requirements of each title, its version and the settings. No frame rate is promised.
🟠 Minecraft and Roblox
Requirements vary by game, world, experience, and effects. Check the game's requirements; low settings alone do not guarantee a good experience.
🔴 Demanding Games
Not recommended for recent AAA games. For a dedicated gaming machine, consult our workshop before purchasing.
The chassis has a half-height PCIe x16 slot. Any graphics card addition must respect the low-profile form factor, available space, and electrical limits; an upgrade does not automatically make this PC suitable for all games. No dedicated graphics card is included.

🔧 Memory and upgrade options
Both memory slots are occupied by 2 × 4 GB. This configuration allows for dual-channel with compatible modules, for better memory bandwidth than single-channel. To reach 16 GB, the two current modules must be replaced with 2 × 8 GB compatible modules. The actual frequency used depends on the sticks and the settings.
The chassis provides an internal 3.5-inch bay and a slim slot for an optical drive. Storage upgrades must be checked according to the available media, cables, and connections; their presence is not guaranteed by the case design.
A Low Profile graphics card can be considered after checking its length, thickness, the 255 W rated power supply, and cooling. The PCIe slots do not guarantee compatibility with any card.
The platform provides professional network features such as PXE, for booting from the network, and Wake-on-LAN, for waking the PC remotely. Their operation depends on the configuration and settings; contact our workshop for managed use.

♻️ LET'S GIVE A SECOND LIFE TO OUR COMPUTERS
At LA CLÉ INFORMATIQUE, we believe that a computer should not automatically be thrown away simply because it is a few years old. A suitable device can still serve for a long time, depending on its condition and the needs of the person using it.
Repair when possible, reuse functional hardware, and prioritize responsible recycling when the device reaches the end of its life: refurbishing helps reduce electronic waste and make computing more accessible.
CALL BEFORE THE TRASH!
So that future generations do not pay the price of past generations.
LA CLÉ INFORMATIQUE — Low-price computers, a second life for computer hardware!
