Windows 7 Experience Index Rating

Flava0ne · Jan 3, 2012, 02:18 AM

From looking at my system specs, what would you think my Windows Experience Index Rating would or should be?

Arctucas · Jan 3, 2012, 02:26 AM

7.7 on the CPU, 7.9 on the rest.

Flava0ne · Jan 3, 2012, 02:30 AM

Actually, its 7.8 for both my CPU and Memory and 7.9 for the rest. Now my question is, what does it take to get a perfect 7.9 for the CPU & RAM? LOL

Over clock it more . That will get them up .

tigger · Jan 3, 2012, 02:41 AM

Mines 7.5 yaay for me.

Arctucas · Jan 3, 2012, 02:42 AM

7.8 for the RAM @ 2000MHz?

I get 7.9 @ 1628.

Flava0ne · Jan 3, 2012, 02:51 AM

Ya its not that I want to get a perfect 7.9, but would be nice though, I just thought that I would prior to me building my new rig.

I did score a 7.9 on my RAM only one time when I formatted 2 times ago, but its been a 7.8 ever since, weird or what? ;p

rangerone766 · Jan 3, 2012, 02:53 AM

i get 7.5 on cpu and ram. 7.9 for both the graphics. and 6.0 on the hardrive(lol) i really need some ssd's, just a bit too expensive still. but you would think 3x74gig raptors in raid0 would score a little higher. my read writes max out my sata controller.

Lazzer408 · Jan 3, 2012, 02:56 AM

WEI is based on more then just synthetic benchmark/speeds. You could have 10ghz memory and only score a 7 if there's only 2gb of it, for example.

Arctucas, how much memory do you have?

Ya getting SSDs would definitely bump it up.

tigger · Jan 3, 2012, 03:00 AM

Mines-

cpu-7.5
mem-7.9 mem at 16xx
graphics-7.8
gaming graphics-7.8
Hdd-7.7

My hdd went from 5.9 with a single hdd to 7.7 with a 60gb ssd

trickson · Jan 3, 2012, 03:02 AM

Mine is
7.5
7.5
7.4
7.4
5.9

Now that sucks !

MGF Derp · Jan 3, 2012, 03:02 AM

From what I have read 7.9 on cpu is luck of draw sometimes. I have seen threads where a 6.8Ghz 980x didnt even get a 7.9.

Flava0ne · Jan 3, 2012, 03:03 AM

On my old rig, I went from a 5.9 on 2 HDDs in RAID 0 to a 7.6 with 2 SSDs in RAID 0

From my WEI rating, I can believe that.

Betcha if you rate it again it'll more than likely go down to 7.8 for your RAM. That was rated over a year ago from the date on the screenshot.

Alright, it is a bet.

I am re-running it right now and will post a screenshot momentarily.

Fresh run:

Since nothing had changed, I used an old screenshot.

7.6

wolf · Jan 3, 2012, 03:36 AM

I hate how it takes the lowest score, so I usually do an average.

Mine:

7.5
7.6
7.9
7.9
7.9

if my CPU was OC and the ram was 1600+ I think I could be looking at 7.8-7.9

Dang, my Corsair Force 3 only scores a 7.3. I must have something jacked up.

In that case I have a feeling WEI takes CL 1T 2T timings or dual/tripple configurations into account when calculating it's numbers.

trickson · Jan 3, 2012, 05:01 AM

I hate you all !

xaira · Jan 3, 2012, 05:07 AM

i heard and read a couple places that WEI wont give a cpu 7.9 unless its running at 5.6ghz or more, not even with those dual xeon gaing setups could you get 7.9

let me help you guys feel better
