Show Us Your WEI (2)

[rkf76]

When I installed Win7 (custom install over Vista) I didn't bother to run the WEI cause there was already a number there, the same as in Vista. Just for shits n giggles I updated my WEI and it stayed the same.......I really gotta upgrade my memory.....4gb coming soon!

Thanks A Guy and Dave


I think the question should be more like "what didn't I upgrade" lol

Last thing I upgraded a couple of days ago was the hard drive and now have windows 7 on a SSD

Really happy with the system all round now , it runs very nice.

Cheers

Paul.

Gotta give props to my uncle....this was his Vista Ultimate machine for a while, and when he upgraded to a hyperthreading, OC'd i7 machine, he set this one up with Win 7 Ultimate for me, and I love it. A nice upgrade from my old 1.63GHz single-core XP SP3 machine that had 512MB of RAM.

Looks good, SSDs are great upgrades.

Would like to see what that Corsair F60 gets on the AS SSD benchmark.

If you have it can you post it on the Show us your SSD performance thread?

Their F40 is suppose to get the same speed, which will make it the fastest in that size range.

Hi Dave , I ran tests on both HD tune and AS when I first got it the other day.

The results on AS were very dissapointing , I am not sure what to make of them.

Will post it up in the other thread and perhaps discuss it there.

Cheers

Paul.

Hello Bravo5, welcome to Seven Forums!

 

[Dave76]

Welcome to Seven Forums Bravo5, nice scores

 

[Maxxwire]

At least I know where the bottleneck is. It looks like my new desktop needs an even newer SSD although the read and write times of the current Hitachi 1TB HD are easy to live with in terms of practical functionality...

Something odd going on..

So I decided to mess around with my old pc
Asus S2E@ 3.6
4GB Patriot DDR2
3x Nvidia 280 GTX
2x Intel X25G2 60GB Raid 0

I did a clean windows install all patches then installed Nvidia system drivers and video drivers.

WEI Score of
7.4
7.4
7.6
7.6
7.6

I installed the old 197.45 drivers and my video score went up to 7.9 7.9

I then reinstalled the 258.96 drivers and WEI stays at 7.9 7.9

Last thing Im wondering is I had a 7.6 on storage with 1 Intel X25G2 Im now running 2 of them in raid 0 and It didnt go up at all..

 

[Maxxwire]

thobel- Those are some great marks! Have you ever run the Passmark Performance Tests on the computer? You are now so close to the top of the WEI scale that the Passmark results may be able to tell you a little more.

Great numbers...but don't fret over the WEI scores, they are fickle and inaccurate. Only a rough estimate I'd say. As suggested, you'd want to use some performance or benchmarking programs to judge actual performance at that level. A Guy

Two X25M-G's should get you a 7.9, ( it did me ) did you disable Cash ?

also the latest firmware is 2CV102HD, also are you using Intel RST ?

My score went from 5.9 to 7.4 just by getting an SSD drive
