Very good, rallypally.

My guess is that, with a discharged battery, Windows went into power-saving mode and throttled back your CPU speed. Once fully charged, you are back to normal. You could set that to not do the throttling as I mentioned, but then your laptop battery would run down more quickly. This is a choice you have to make (or run the laptop plugged in when doing music).

However - that Geekbench score is the bare minimum to run BIAB. Use as few RealTracks as possible, and follow my recommendations above about Options, Preferences, RealTracks. Let us know how it works.
