Is it my PC or is this normal?

Hi everyone, I’ll keep this concise!
Recently, there must’ve been an update of sorts to the studio because the “view” of the metal material shows a very rendered, beautiful metallic material, however when applied to a sphere or any mesh the effect simply is not the same. I do not know if it’s just my PC not having adequate parts/power, or if there is something I need to do in-studio. (Side note, my rendering is at level 21)
If you have any solutions, please do let me know!

Thanks in advance!

Looks normal to me. Keep in mind that the lighting in the preview is different than the lighting in your place.
