I don't know why the score is low for the CPU

[carwiz]

Why times two?

Are you adjusting for DDR?

Your SSD is in IDE mode it needs to be in AHCI mode. Here is a tutorial on how to enable AHCI.

I have the same SSD you have. It should look more like this.

That is the maximum setting it will run at with voltages etc. as they are now in bios.

Your in HKCU. You need to be in HKLM.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services ...

 

[KhajiitDovakiin]

Well I put it in AHCI

Edit. I noticed it say system32. Does having a 64 bit OS and CPU have anything to do with it?
Should it be System 64 instead?

EDIT 2: I re-ran the assessment and have updated the WEI. Better than before by a mile as far as I am concerened. Thank you to all those who helped, much appreciated.
Should I start a Separate thread to resolve the issue just keep posting here?

Well I put it in AHCI but the CPU score has gone up a bit.

Numbers are looking better but the CPU still has a issue

After you built the computer, on first start up you should have gone straight to bios. Can you remember exactly what you did and what you set? Did you set 'optimized defaults? Is turbo enabled and what is the multiplier for turbo mode? If you can take pictures showing the Vcore, turbo mode Intel speed step and all of the settings, please post them. It appears you have a wrong setting in bios, a bad CPU or a bad motherboard. Your CPU should get a 7.5-7.6 in WEI, and your raphics card should get 7.9.

I bought this PC from a friend. It was prebuilt I think. So I didn't set the settings but i'll go into the bios and look. But yes I think he said when he got it he flashed the bios and set it to optimized defaults because it kept turning itself off. Where can I find turbo boost?

I'm not familar with Gigabyte bios settings. But you can usually find it in a section of bios usually called overclocking or advanced settings. It is the section where you overclock the CPU, but is also where the important settings are. My board, if I put a USB drive in; on any page I'm on I can push F12 and it will put a picture of that bios page on the USB. I would think yours has something similar.

 

[Golden]

With Gigabyte, you find the various overclocking functions under MIT (Motherboard Intelligent Tweaker).

 

[Solarstarshines]

If he had to flash the Bios due to itself turning off it has to be a deeper issue

Something is not running properly or is on it's way out meaning one or maybe a few components are faulty or even bad cooling

have you checked all the hardware to make sure it is running at proper timmings and also the person didn't flash the wrong Bios to the board

Your PCI-E slot also appears to be running at x1, not x16?

Here's mine

Nice catch A Guy. I missed that completely. First time I have ever missed anything.:roflmao:
But, how do you get a 2GB 6970 to run at X1?

Not sure you can, but you get a 7.8 if you do apparently :shock: Just looked at his WEI again, the GPU is not looking bad, but apparently it should get a 7.9?

It should easily get a 7.9 but the really bad one is the CPU. It should get 7.5-7.6

Sorry for the late replies. I went to bed it was 2am when I was making changes to the computer. Yes it is set to PCI in the Bios should I change it to PCIE x16?

It should easily get a 7.9 but the really bad one is the CPU. It should get 7.5-7.6

The score has gone up to 6.3. It is set to PCI in the Bios should I set to PCIEx16?

Yes, if you are talking about the GPU. It should be PCIe X16. What other adjustments have you made? An increase from 4.2 to 6.3 is a significant increase, but should still be at least 7.5.

I just noticed that your GPU went up from 7.8 to 7.9 like it should be. Did you make the pcie change before running that wei?

Yes, if you are talking about the GPU. It should be PCIe X16. What other adjustments have you made? An increase fron 4.2 to 6.3 is a significant increase, but should still be at least 7.5.

I'll go into the bios now and make the change to the GPU and get info on the settings for you.
