Sorry about the previous thread. I had gotten the poll wrong and i couldn't edit it.
This time I triple checked the poll before I submit it.
Limits: max score possible in W7 is 7.9, WEI of Intel HD 3000 is about 6.3 so that's the minimum.
This is for the graphics score and not the gaming graphics score, as I believe the former will be slightly less.
thanks.

I haven't the slightest clue man, heh. Have you information such as the clock speed and whatnot? If so, try to figure a ratio between the two, and get a score based on that ratio.
Best I could do, lame, I know.
For me it's pure speculation with a big dollop of hope.
This poll has a very minimal chance of being accurate. I just want to see what everyone's expectations are.
But more realistically, GPU comparisans put it just below the Radeon HD 6550D, and with improved drivers it may get close to the AMD's GPU, which has a rating of 6.7
so maybe just under 6.7 is more likely, I don't know.
Either way, it'll definitely be better than my Pentium.
Does it really matter. Intel graphics will be more than enough for general Windows use and things like Facebook and videos. Certainly wouldn't want to be trying to play any new games on it, but for everyday use it is fine.
The WEI has no real world relevance. It's the benchmarks that matter:
7% improvement in SYSmark 2012 score
14% improvement in HDXPRT 2011 score
15% improvement in Cinebench 11.5 score
13% improvement in ProShow Gold 4.5 results
25% improvement in Excel 2010 performance
56% faster performance in ArcSoft Media Expresso
192% higher overall 3DMark Vantage Performance Preset - Score
17% faster performance in 3DMark Vantage Performance Preset - CPU benchmark
199% faster performance in 3DMark Vantage Performance Preset - GPU benchmark
Intel's Ivy Bridge vs. Sandy Bridge Benchmarks Leaked
