Show Us Your WEI

Hello Cato, welcome to Seven Forums!

Thanks for the welcome. I visit about everyday, just don't always log in. There's a wealth of information in these forums.

Dre, I've noticed that overclocking changes the score on this processor...probably all processors, in fact. Mine is OC at 3.8 and if you notice it's rated lower than yours at 3.6. I didn't ever pay attention to what it was when it was running stock.

Probably something I just hadn't noticed before.

I think that maybe mine gives a higher score on the cpu is because I have not overclocked my cpu on its own, I have done a 10%FSB overclock, so everything is overclocked. My board only supports memory running at 800MHz but mine runs at 927MHz if memory serves me right, hence why I installed 1066 memory rather than the 800.

That could very well be. I haven't got my mind completely wrapped around this overclocking bit. It's just that the E8400,8500 and 8600 are so easily overclocked with minimal tweaking that I had to try it.

Hmmm!.
I'm blogging with my XP machine. Why no pic.
I just game and learn with the W7 64 bit machine. But on it, my WEI score is 6.9. That is the cpu score as well. SLI'd Graphics 7.2, 1366 memory 7.2 and a RAID 0, SSD drive 7.8. Did not want to brag, all other scores seem allful low. Bet I can get that cpu score up with some judicious OC'ing.

i can't wait for my SSD to arrive. i aleady have 6.9 each for CPU and RAM, 6.8 each for desktop and gaming graphics and just a 5.9 like everyone else who's having a normal mechanical HDD for the disk score. others are getting 7.5 with that drive. i am hopeful XD

Hello Anusha, which SSD did you get?

That Kingston 40GB boot drive. It should arrive with a friend's Alienware lappy in couple of weeks' time. :)

I wanted a SSD as well, but they're way too expensive right now. I could never do anything with such a small C drive, hence my 5.9 WEI score.

Hopefully prices come down and storage size goes up!
