Show Us Your WEI

[jasin]

i would think the video card(s) would get a higher score.

Hum, there is an issue with your computer my friend :sarc:

IMO you should immediately change your GPU (for a GTS250 or 5770 for instance) 'cause the one you have is very very weak, even for Win7.
Your CPU is one of the best for now and your HDD isn't bad at all. Look at your RAM settings, you probably may increase that low score with a minimum of effort (watch the RAM performance thread)

EDIT:

Have a look at my EeePC WEI, you didn't expect such a power inside a so little thing, did you?

umm, did you tweak the numbers somehow?

Please post the model number of that netbook because if it is as you say I'm buying one.

Those are not real numbers. Come on now. I have almost 3 times the power that Eeepc has and and I did not get those numbers.

@Swimaf[/B]: WTF, what did you do to this EEE-PC :shock:...steroids or WordPad?!

lol there is even link to info how to change WEI by yourself in Wordpad xD

Damn, I am unmasked
Actually the true score is closer to 2.1 than 7.5 ...

:roflmao:
Nice one.... Swimaf, you actually managed to trick a good number of people with that one.. You even had me going for a while too, but I must admit I've never known much about those chibi-laptops anyway. Lol.

EDIT: BTW, I somewhat lost my interest in WEI now that I just tested Resident Evil 5 and it runs like a charm with DirectX10 1920x1200 8xAA and all possible quality settings at maximum! ...now that's what I call a really pleasing EXPERIENCE;

i ran RE5 in DX10 mode and didn't see any difference in graphics. it only run slower.
after some googling i found out that there's is no bonuses from DX10 mode.
from tomshardware: "... [no] new content, or shaders, [or] effects added to Direct[X] 10.
actually i have yet to see any substantial difference between 9 & 10(.1). DX11 stands apart with that tessellation thing, which is awesome no doubt about that.

I just love the Resident Evil series ever since I had my Playstation! At first I was a little surprised though that you could still sell PC games that don't let your character jump and crouch.

RE fan here too. right now i'm playing RE0 on Dolphin emu. my new rig finally makes it possible

My newest after a little meltdown with the kids forced me to take the low profile case down to scratch and reassemble and retune everything. I'm very happy with an old [email protected] o/c 9x400 and HD4650 o/c 700c/825m w/ a 30GB early Vertex w/ 1.5 firmware. Full report in XPS format here: View attachment orion-7.zip

This one is for my desktop

Yippee! finally, someone who has a lower score than I do! (3.9)

Is that an SLC drive you got there?

P.S. That dude has epic boobs....

Hi Jasin, I guess you missed that one before Swimaf posted his EEE-PC world record WEI score:

Lol, i agree BFK, I was just wanting to please the rest here I posted this link before as a separate thread and he agrees with you/us.

One last comment to the games addressed: Of course valzero is right and RE5 is not the ultimate benchmark for current high end systems BUT I've tried the STALKER series as well (and true, I wasn't able to crank all settings to maximum quality) and I must say that RE5 simply looks better than STALKER! I totally accredit the STALKER engine for setting a mile-stone some time ago, but I gotta give props to the RE5 adaption for its nice graphics with comparably mild demands to the hardware.

Have you ever seen an EeePc which makes Crysis and GTAIV running on?
If so you found it inside a meteorit that comes from the Alienware galaxy :sarc:
No, that's not possible to get a 'real' 7.5 WEI with this little piece of silicium, I just did a little trick on it with a good workpad and posted it as well

Nice one.... Swimaf, you actually managed to trick a good number of people with that one.. You even had me going for a while too, but I must admit I've never known much about those chibi-laptops anyway. Lol.

Honnestly I did not expect anybody to fall into the trap

I gotta give props to the RE5 adaption for its nice graphics with comparably mild demands to the hardware.

As I said RE5 is a very successful PC-optimized game with a very good graphic quality indeed. Capcom's developpers show us that console adaptions do not always mean poor PC games, I obviously think about GTAIV, but not only.

mine is 5.7​

Post everything and we can give you some tips as to how improve it.

Here's mine.

Here's mine.

Overclock your cpu to 3.2 that is a VERY safe speed for that processor and can be done on air. Your score will be 7.6. If you have an EVGA mobo you can just go to the bios and select dummy O/C. Nice build you got there now I know what the wei of that ATI is. I do not think your RAM is running at the correct speed, you might want to try and enable xmp profile under the bios anything above 12gb should give you 7.9. Unless you are running it at 1333 or 1066, but most of our ram now is at least 1600.

If you want that MLC drive's speed to not degrade you need the Intel® Solid State Drive Toolbox http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=18455 .

Once again nice build, congratulations .

Thanks for the OC advice, since I've never done it before. This Asus P6T mobo has an OC profile for XMP which I am running. I wonder if I can tweak the CPU with that profile on since it automatically configures the CPU with the RAM?

Great question!!! When you get to 3.19Ghz you may have to get rid of the ram oc if the system can not take it. The idea is for your machine to be forever stable. If you have to sacrifice a little ram speed by lowering to 1333 or less to achieve overall system performance do it.

Why do I got the feeling that you will be back in 30 mins or so with a 7.6 score...

No, it's an original Indilinx-based OCZ Vertex with the newest 1.5 firmware. This sucker flies. There are faster ones but considering I put my user profile and games on a spindle drive I get by just fine on 30GB with Windows 7, Office 2010 and a couple dozen other apps.

What about epic boobs? Now I'm curious...
