Performance scores
Six years old, flags still green
The 2020 VivoBook 15 X513 is the kind of listing the used market produces rarely: a $339 ticket whose CPU score reads 70 — high band, top quarter — on a Core i3 1115G4 with 16 GB of RAM and a GeForce MX330. The verdict block names the CPU as the strength and the 16 GB of memory as the flagged weakness against a 32 GB median.
The surprising part is the receipts. Overwatch clears recommended, Grand Theft Auto V clears recommended with a measured 140, and Far Cry 5 clears minimum at a measured 27 fps; Photoshop and Visual Studio Code clear minimums. For a six-year-old token graphics card, that is a confirmed-light-gaming sheet, not an aspirational one. The absolute levels frame the rest honestly: gaming 19 low, portability 46 mid, while photo and design reads 81 high and value 81.7 high.
Depreciation math
The anchor reads 10.39% yearly with no base price attached. Six years in at $339, the curve is nearly flat from here — the machine is priced as a commodity and the value index says a well-evidenced one.
Who should buy it
The budget buyer who wants receipts, not promises: green flags, measured frames, high-band CPU. The memory ceiling and the low gaming index are the honest scope — light and older titles confirmed, nothing more claimed.
Bottom line: six years of age show in the gaming index at 19 low and the memory ceiling at 16 GB — and in almost nothing else. The CPU column reads 70 high, the photo axis 81 high, the value index 81.7 high, and the flag sheet carries measured frames: Grand Theft Auto V recommended at a measured 140, Far Cry 5 minimum at a measured 27. Five green entries on six-year-old silicon is the kind of documentation the used market rarely provides. At $339 the ticket prices the age; the flags price the capability.
