Nero Score

Nero Score provides a general-use benchmark software utility designed to test a computer’s CPU and GPU power and provide a score that can be easily compared with that of others. The purpose is to allow users to assess the performance of their computer easily.

A straightforward application that can be used by anyone 

Following an uneventful setup process, Nero Score displays its main window, where you can see a detailed chart about your computer’s configuration. It displays the CPU manufacturer, the product type, the installed version of the operating system and the platform architecture, as well as the total RAM memory and information regarding the graphics card, the CPU and the hard drive.
There is a “Start now” button that enables you to initiate a new benchmark test  You will get no additional options or configuration settings, as Nero intended for this software tool to be accessible and easy to use to anyone, regardless of their previous experience with a benchmark utility.

Performs tests to assess the AI-based scene detection score 

Once the analysis starts, you just have to wait for it to finish the test. It is advisable that you don’t launch any other applications or media files in the meantime to make sure the benchmark results are as accurate as possible.
Since it is created by Nero, it is only normal that the tests Nero Score performs use real-world multimedia processing. You will notice how Nero Score loads a bunch of images within its main window, revealing the time it took your CPU’s artificial intelligence engine to identify the scene.

Compare the performance of your computer with others 

Once the analysis is complete, you get a score. As it usually happens with benchmark tools, this score can be easily compared with that of others. Nero Score opens up a dedicated page where you can see the best scores and the corresponding computer configurations.
Nero Score is not a robust benchmark tool but the test it performs can be relevant to you, especially if you want to compare your machine’s performance to that of a friend’s computer.
