The Windows 7 Experience Index thread

I'm not going to bother with downloading a file off of RS to verify your claim (which could very well have been photochopped), but in the remote case that rite is correct, then this just means that it's time we shut this thread down since it isn't going to be giving us a look at any replicable stable scores.
A bit of googling afirms that WEI is crap.

 

[rite]

Well, it does make a difference because raw power of a 2600k is much more than a 2500k, though most programs aren't optimized for enough difference, but some programs allow 10-20% additional performance in terms of theoretical benchmarks.

You can check any core i7 perhaps not even sandy bridge, 920/860 or above, and I guess all will score at least 7.6 even on stock, or 7.5 or so. 2600k probably gets 7.6-7.7 on stock, and 7.8-7.7-7.8+ at OC.

OC only gives a 0.1 to 0.2 increase or so, nothing much.

And ya, these scores don't mean much to real world performance!

Well, even your 6950 CF just gets 7.8 whereas my 5850 used to get 7.7-7.9 too I think. My 6970 gets 7.9. But obviously your 6950 CF is much more powerful, so these numbers don't mean much

@Vivacious_TG:
Also go to MS config and set the affinity to 4.

I will check this when at home and revert to you.

say,does WEI depend on ram speed?i have 4 gb ram,ddr2 800 and it shows 5.9?

 

[whatsinaname]

Heh. Not very balanced.

Edit 1: WTH? I just re-ran the test and my CPU now shows 6.6?

Edit 2: E8400 + EP45-UD3P + 4GB DDR2 RAM + ATi 6950 + Intel x25-M G2

 

[CA50]

^^ include your system config as well

After a fresh install and oc to 43x100 and RAM at 1600 CAS 9, I get

CPU 7.8

RAM 7.9

GPU Both 7.9

HDD 5.9

Looks like I need a SSD :S

 

[pratikb]

post a screen shot like others.

no pic,no post...

LOL how hard is it to get a screenshot uploaded to imgur: the simple image sharer.

Here's the rating of my netbook. Puny ofc but it does what it is supposed to.

 

[Casual Gamer]

Specs:

Intel Core i5 2500k @4.5Ghz

Gigabyte P67A-UD3R-B3

2X2GB= 4GB 1600Mhz Corsair Vengeance @9-9-9-24 & 1T

Gigabyte Radeon HD5770 1GB @950(Core)/1365(Memory)

Samsung Spinpoint F3 1TB(Need a SSD Badly )

Is there anyone here who is getting 7.5 in Gaming Graphics in WEI rating with a single HD5770?

 

[ReVo_007]

LOL you OCed it heavily I got 7.4 on stock with my 5770

 

[raksrules]

On a side note, are people here deciding what to buy next (just for the heck of it) to increase this irrelevant score :|

 

[manju2manju]

AMD Athlon II X4 630 @ 3.5GHz
Asus M4A88TD-V-EVO/USB3
2x2GB G.SKILL Ripjaws 1600MHz @ 7-8-7-24
WD AAKS 500GB

 

[rite]

Apart from HDD at 5.9, can you beat that???

Everything a perfect 7.9 except CPU score at 7.8.

CPU at 4.3 GHz
Memory at 1600 CAS 9 stock.

 

[Hades.]

AMD Athlon II X4 630 @ 3.5GHz

Asus M4A88TD-V-EVO/USB3

2x2GB G.SKILL Ripjaws 1600MHz @ 7-8-7-24

WD AAKS 500GB

Which OS are you using? :S Your WEI screenshot looks a bit different... :S

 

[asingh]

Rite sir LOTE*, you are perfecto...! Happy now..?



*Lord of TE

 

[surajspai]

does ram speed really affect the WEI?i have almost the same config as manju2manju,but 4gb DDR2 ram 1000mhz rated,running at 800?

 

[rite]

AFAIK RAM qty barely makes a difference(at least not after3-4 gb), but cas, speed, performance etc of RAM does.
