If you're not being sarcastic, you are definitely good. WEI is not a decent benchmark for anything that I know of.

Your case, monitor, keyboard and mouse are the bottleneck, obviously.

I would check the timings on your RAM, you should be hitting the 7.9 max with that RAM\CPU, but nothing seems to be problematic.

I see a bottleneck but its nothing to do with your rig.

Also you should be getting a high rating for your SSD i get 7.5 and im only running mine in Sata 2.

I reckon go for the 120gb Force 3, I did yesterday and it's already paying off with what I need/want on my system drive.

I was wandering why am i getting 7.2.. Capacity doesn't matter does it?

Also my PSU is 1050w from some off-brand manufacturer.i'm not sure if it is delivering what its suppose to,coz when i OC 560s it won't stay stable.i dunno if it has something to do with psu or gfx cards

how far are you trying to overclock the gfx cards?

also, run a test using HD Tune on your SSD then compare that with results you find online, or post up a screen shot here and I'm sure someone can tell you if it's good or not. You might want to check for firmware updates as well.

Those speeds are fine i think windows ratting does depend on free space becasue when i got my drive and only had windows i got 7.7 now i just retested and now its saying 7.4 so i wouldn't worry about it to much because its a load of sh@T.

well, since it is a newer SATA-3 drive, i would reckon it should get a 7.9.
