Windows 7: Show Us Your WEI

Let us know.... I don't remember seeing any reported in this thread and I think I have read most of the posts.... (if I have missed one, I apologize in advance...).

How does your processor get 6.4 when mine gets 3.4? It's basically the same thing.

well spotted, it does seem like a high cpu score for 1.86 GHz - checking his specs, he's clocked it to 3 GHz

he doesn't go into his cooling solution though - liquid nitrogen?

Yes, quite possibly!

You won't improve your HDD score without major surgery.

Go to Tom's Video card Heirarchy below for reference.

Graphics Card Hierarchy Chart - Review Tom's Hardware : Best Graphics Cards For The Money: Jan. '09

The general rule of thumb is you must go UP the heirarchy at LEAST 4-5 levels before the upgrade is worth the cost.

Don't know what your budget is. I have a Sapphire ATI HD4830. Overclocked it scores 7.3 on the WEI and can play anything I play at high settings and good frame-rates. (Q6600 3.0 GHz, 8GB Ram).

The HD4830 card is 12 levels ABOVE the 9400 GT. Shop around you can catch some very good cards at fairly reasonable prices every now and then.

Watch out that you don't get a card that won't physically fit your case or that needs power that your PSU cannot provide. Another factor is usage, HTPC users want a silent card. Gamers don't mind fan noise as they run around blowing up the universe.

Happy hunting...

P.S. It is not wise to post email addresses directly in a forum.

Mine,

How do you get that as your score with 3 hard drives?

Avag is 5.68
