| | New graphics card giving low WEI score? I just upgraded from a 8800GT to a Radeon 5870, and after I ran the WEI.. well, I'll show you.  My 8800GT gave me a 6.8 on the Gaming graphics scale. Is something wrong with my card? |

| | Im positive I have the right driver installed. And I just re-ran the test, and it bumped up to 6.0 but my old card still gave me a 6.9. Another thing I want to point out.. Thats troubling.. Is that at idle, it sits at 50ishC. Is that normal? |

| | I don't read too much into the wei as it is not very accurate at all. One example of why; Some guy on here the other day had 7.2 for a 9600gt, another had 6.5 another had 6.6 and another had 6.9. I take into account overclock but there is no way a 9600gt chip would score 7.2. I have a 9800GTX+ oc and that scores 7.0. OP, Take it with a pinch of salt. As long as you see an increase in frame rate from the new card when gaming and there are no graphical issues then I wouldn't worry about it. |
