Show Us Your WEI

Another thing noticed is that my memory scores lower in x64 at 5.9 than x86 at 7.2 every other number is the same

Too bad I can't get the 7.6 or 7.7 from my CPU and memory. So I guess my EVGA GTX 285 SC is my bottleneck now? LOL. Well, I have no interest in doing SLI again (did that with two 8800GTX and two 7600GT cards in previous systems), so I'll have to live with my 6.6, hehehe.

Windows RC-1 64-bit (straight from ISO of RC-1).

Also, on first run, my RAID 0 of SSDs scored 7.3, and on the second it scored 7.4. It seems to vary I guess?

Here is Mine.
the ram should be higher as it is 1066 but running at 800???
well yea the CPu is a E1400 OC'd to 2.86

Here's my latest WEI score...
Just Joking!!!!
I hacked it...LOL

The Real score is the one on the right...hehe!

Can you make it say anything above 7.9 by hacking?

Yea, you can go as high as 9.9
But that would be spotted to be a fake immediately because it's not supposed to go any higher than 7.9...

Info on how to do this & no reboot is required so you can check the
WEI as you do it to make sure you are editing the correct numbers.


The Windows System Assessment Tool (WinSAT), is a free benchmarking tool that measures various performance characteristics and capabilities of a computer running in Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008 & Windows 7.
The ratings are displayed as Windows Experience Index or WEI score.

The hack stuff:
WinSAT saves the scores in a XML file located in the Windows\Performance\WinSAT\DataStore folder.
Each time you perform benchmarking using WinSAT, it creates a new XML file and stores it in this folder.
All you have to do is to open the latest XML file and edit it using WORDPAD.

Fun stuff: Modify your WEI score and show it to your friends just for fun.

What this looks like in Wordpad & the numbers to be changed.
(This is just the first part of it as the data is quite extensive & is toward the top or start of it)

I got a 3.1 on my craptop. Nobody would buy it if I stuck in a 4! :)

They might if you were trying to sell it though & they didn't know anything about computers...
