I know it`s just memory...

You`re saying better graphics will also bring up the cpu score ?

I know a better cpu score brings up the memory score.

RAM is RAM unless you're a EWE!

You've gotten a 7.9 for the CPU on WEI Gary?

Nope, I had it at 5.0GHz long enough to run WEI but only netted a 7.8, then a BSOD.
A GPU won't effect the CPU score but could increase the total score.

Hum Gary I thought the WEI was governed by the setting / device which had the lowest score

That is true.

That's true John, AddRAM's lowest score is GPU. He thought a better one would raise the CPU score.
Say he gets a GPU that scores a 7.9 then his score would be 7.6, his CPU score, the then lowest.

Just raised the cpu score to 7.7 on a small overclock.

The idea is to work on the lowest score first, that`s why my next piece of hardware will be a card and then the the other 16 gigs of memory, then the water cooler.

Boot time is like 10-12 seconds, ridiculus

How much of an OC did you do?

3.8 manaually, the OC Genie can send it to 4.2 with a push of a button. Temps only went to 34 idle.

It should hit 3.8 if you have Turbo Boost enabled automatically.
