Show Us Your WEI [3]

I agree with all of you. Wei is not a bench mark that truly tests the hardware and all of its functionality, but it is a bench mark on hardware that effects windows 7. I agree it does not tell whether or not my graphics card is better than yours (it probably isn't since its a 260gtx directx 10), but I would like to know from windows, what product(s) I should buy to make my windows experience a 7.9. I know there is marketing, but I also know Microsoft should have a product to reach a 7.9, otherwise, how could they have made a valid 7.9 test in the first place.

I am in the right forum, right? :)

That's true. I'm just trying to say wei shouldn't be such a pain in the a$$ to get a 7.9. It should be based on a correctly configured pc with top quality components. Thats it.

I just got stuck on the cpu score because no one needs a 2x 6 core processor @ 5.5GHz anyway. At least not for a windows 7 experience. I thought there might be a regedit setting or something I was missing (tweaks).

Anyway check out my site on installing my ssd and wei score here. I had a few problems, but it might help someone ghosting there old os and keeping the ssd aligned. I still can't find a good SATA III controller card for my vertex 3 SSD. The LSI 9260 seems good, but I want trim. I will post again if I get a 7.8 cpu score.

And then came "PC DOS 2.0" the torture began.

I guess if microsoft had a "DOS experience index" back then, it would be DEI or Die. :)

It's OK. Btw., Optimus is unfortunately not fancyWEI aware. For Aero, it will offer Intel graphics, for gaming - discrete.

Here's mine...
