Show Us Your WEI

[darkassain]

It's currently just a mild overclock from 2.8 to 3.2, so nothing extreme

print view still shows it @ 2.8 stock

im guessing it just "identifies" the CPU
remember were not part of the target group for the wei...
that said i got a 3.0 on my laptop....

i cant believe my transfer rate lowered me down to 3
will edit to post a pic later....

Looking at the WEI on 6956, against 6801;
It appears that the 6956 is better at using the computer spec.

I built this system in Feb this year, the O/C to 3ghz was done in June, nothing has been altered or tweaked since,
6801 was installed in mid Nov, the 6956 4 days ago, both 32 bit, so the readings you see are from an identical spec,
Ergo, the 6956 is much more efficient in using the available spec.

You have to use a standard, to acheive a correct result.

how is memory array???
1gbx4 2gbx2 or 4gbx1

cuz you can only get such high scores if you are running in dual channel or even tri channel

 

[garysgold]

Hi DA,

It's 1GB x 4.

Gary

 

[darkassain]

Hi DA,

It's 1GB x 4.

Gary

hey gary
then u should be able to get all the performance from dual channel...
you're pc6400 right (800mhz)
or PC5400 (667) or 4300(533)???

because im running pc6400 without dual channel (3gb)
but im getting 5.4...
i dont think it might be because im running in a laptop....
check my score

im surpised on my graphics score (its the one of the latest in integrated graphic (or was when i bought it...lol)
but also was surprised on my DDTR score (well in wei's defense its a 5400 rpm drive...lol)

 

[garysgold]

Yes it's PC 6400. I'm thinking it might just be because this is an earlier build than the 6956. These scores are about the same as in the 6801 x32 build. Hopefully the public beta will do better.

Yeah, that explains my low CPU score

 

[hethoofd]

Mine isn't very high, but I'm satisfied with my Vostro 1510.

 

[darkassain]

Mine isn't very high, but I'm satisfied with my Vostro 1510.

thats crazy...lol
you have a way higher DDRT score...
is it a 7200 rpm drive???...
sorry just want to know

 

[johngalt]

if i remember correctly the tests are simple Direct 9 and 10 tests
can you see if the scores change higher or lower with one....

Ummm, so when I have the cards in *non-SLI mode* it should be different, right?

Problem is, that it ain't....

And, no, I ain't about to remove one of my video cards (except to maybe RMA it with eVGA as twice in the last two days my second monitor has abruptly 'disappeared' from Vista and W7.....

*also*, when in SLI, I run eVGA and it OC's the card....oh, for crying out loud - eVGA is OCing the card / cards (depending upon SLI or not) so of course it is going to get the same result. I bet even money that if you have multiple cards it still shows only benches a single card....

But that is still an extremely low value for the power of these cards....

 

[darkassain]

see if you run simple tests you dont get the performance and maybe even worse performance...
looky here
Performance Comparison Between Single Configurations And SLI Setups - Review Tom's Hardware : VGA Charts VIII: PCI Express Winter 2005
ok these are old games but there are simpler (in terms of graphics now)
and they are not sli aware or have the coding there....
but this is my point..
there are simple directx tests...

are both the same
meaning the graphics cards...

 

[johngalt]

OK, so how does one achieve a score higher than 6.0 with these 'simple' tests?

 

[darkassain]

wait john check back your wei
your wei shows your GTX as 6.7???

your HDD is the cause of the low WEI

i also wanted to show you guys something interesting

most preferably here

sorry just want to know

No, it's a 5400rpm drive actually

 

[darkassain]

what???
i have a 5400rpm....lol
and i got lowered scores....
maybe i should have turned off Diskeeper....

 

[hdjunkie]

I'll be getting a raptor soon to get that rating up to 6.5 =)

 

[Bare Foot Kid]

Hello all.

I just re-installed 6956 and here's the WEI.








Later :shock: Ted

I could have sworn I post this already, but here goes....

Not really - they're not SLI'd as I am running in dual monitor mode *and* this was before I installed all the OEM drivers - nothing but Windows Update drivers.

I am betting that some of my scores go up just because of drivers the next time I check it.

I redid my install, moving it from the slow WD 250 GB 8 MB Cache drive to my zippy Seagate 500 GB 32MB Cache drive.

And I have the Video Cards SLI'd - but my gaming performance went down lol. This also includes all current drivers. I might try the W7 drivers from WU and see if performance increases, cause if it does, I might go back to them.

Hmmm - I suppose I need to remove SLI and then revert to the old drivers and then re-enable SLI....

Of course some of my other drivers may also be causing problems, then, as I installed the entire nForce set of drivers as well...

Ummm, so when I have the cards in *non-SLI mode* it should be different, right?

Windows Vista scores (ratings) for the video card you selected

OK, so reading all those posts, I decided that I was going to install XP x64, then Vista x64, and finally W7 x64.

I spent the last 4 days getting XP x64 right - then it hit me - WTF?!? am I doing?

I don't need XP for gaming cause W7 is just as fast, and I don't need Vista for, well, anything, except maybe bragging fights `cause it is a MAK....

So, I formatted the entire boot drive and started from scratch - and lo, and behold! I have the 200 MB boot partition now showing in Disk Management, and I took some benches on install:



Still not good, even after updating Dx from the November Redist and then the December WebSetup, nothing changes - friggin 6.0 my arse!

Of course, this is also 6801, and that may be a factor....
