Hi, first post here in a bit. Yes I saw the thread about the Bottleneck Performance, but I did not want to derail it with my issue. Basically I ran the Benchmark twice on my Desktop and noticed the despite a 11k+ score on maximum, my loading times were a whopping ~ 92.44 seconds! Now I also ran this benchmark on my laptop and got 20-30 seconds for average load time. Even in the benchmark topic, I notice average Load Times significantly lower. Here are my general Desktop Specs:
MSI GTX 970 Gaming 4G Geforce 4GB
i5-2500k 3.3 (3-7)
5200 RPM regular HDD (I think?)
2x4 1600 Gigabyte Ram
Here are my Laptop Specs:
Intel Core i7 4800MQ (2.70GHz)
8GB Memory
1TB HDD (7200rpm)
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 870M 3GB
My question is: is it more the processor or the HDD my average load time for the desktop is so high? Or is it another thing altogether maybe? And if I needed to replace just one or the other, would it be better the HDD or the processor?
I'd like to note too, that yes the desktop has been scanned, cleaned, and unnecessary processes disabled.
