why are the Userbench scores for my GPU low and HDD low?

Turn off your web browser and any other programs that might be using your GPU and/or HDD.
These are my scores:

Bear in mind that I used Ryzen Master on my CPU to undervolt and overclock the CPU... and once you do that across all cores, it locks the single core to that same frequency (in my case, 3.3 ghz), so my single core score is a bit lower than yours because yours clocks up to 3.7 ghz on 1 core.
As for the GPU, mine seems to score more than yours (but that could easily be due to other programs running in the background on your laptop).
Plus, I usually run an undervolt on mine (though this one is without the undervolt being active).
Though, as you can see from my SSD score, the Crucial SSD is quite fast (that should give you some indications on whether its worthy to be upgraded).
I plan on replacing the HDD with the Crucial SSD (2TB) once the price goes down below £200.

The GPU is comparable to mobile GTX 1060 in performance... but admittedly, his gpu does score less than even mine. Might be a faulty chip or the unit might have cooling issues under maxed out GPU load.
The fans might not be ramping up to adequate rotational speed for maximum GPU load, which could reduce performance.
It certainly causes me headaches because it appears that in Superposition benchmark and demanding games like Darksiders III, my GPU produces very poor performance with skipping frames in comparison to what it should (my performance is at least 40% lower compared to where it should be).
Its only if I manually force the fans to 80% that it seems to solve the problem, but realistically, this is not a typical behaviour for my unit.
My friend who has identical GL702ZC scores better in GPU oriented tasks with everything set to default and apparently fans set to 'auto'.
I had issues with the unit before which underwent 2 RMA's... and Asus didn't want to give me a replacement or a refund because of their new policy that they will only do one or the other if the unit underwent 3 or 4 unsuccessful RMA attempts (which is ridiculous).
Asus royally messed up a batch of GL702ZC and generally implemented poor cooling.
The hardware and concept is sound, but Asus really dropped the ball and did AMD a great disservice.
Heck, if Asus even just set the GPU clocks to 1200 MhZ, undervolted the GPU and kept memory speed at its current settings, they'd get virtually identical performance to a desktop chip for 75W-80W of chip limit.
