M.2 SSD not performing as expected

[PaulU]

So it's not a huge deal but Userbenchmark says my M.2 isn't performing to it's full potential.

I'm not gonna list my specs, as you can see them in the link. (GPU is actually a 5700 with BIOS flash) The system is still running great though.

Did I miss a software setup step?

I set the setting in the BIOS to 4x

 

Is it because I filled it up half way?

Userbenchmark is about as useful as a plastic bag blowing in the wind. They are unreliable at all. What kind of speeds are you getting? What drive do you have?

Run CrystalDiskMark and post a screenshot here.

thank you. That is the info i needed. Crystalmark shows advertised speeds. It's a WD Black SN750.

Didn't know Userbenchmark wasn't reliable in that sense.

But on the GPU and CPU side, is it good there?

I have 2 drives, one vlack 2TB amd one green 2TB, the grean is clearly started taking the highway..... CrystalDiskInfow  show it as yellow as some other trivial programs.

I go in to this site and it say's that the green is in a better shape than the black.......

Looks fine to me. Though I am not sure about your question...

i mean. are that GPU and CPU stats legit. Like, is Userbenchmark good at evaluating this kind of performance?

that's funny. although when I formatted my old SSD the score went up substantually.

Userbenchmark shouldn't be trusted at all. That made a recent change that basically handicaps AMD CPUs compared to intel CPUs. I use them as a very ROUGH reference and only when I am trying to get a quick comparison. Other than that, they should be taken with a grain of salt. Your best bet is looking a trust worth CPU website and checking against them.

makes sense. The CPU benchmark only takes a few seconds. same with the GPU. getting good data from that is not possible i guess.

It really isn't.
