It does something. Idk, I said this wasn't a great benchmark, was just something I had lying around.
I've overclocked to 4.7ghz if on 2 cores and 4.6ghz if on 4 cores, and it seems to be working fine, and that should counteract any issues I'm having.
As for the SSD, that almost seems to be within some strange margin of error, as the writes have gone up, but the reads have gone down. I don't really see how NVMe drives would be affected, but who knows, maybe I'm sniffing snot.
