I get Gaming 6.0 with my GTX 280 FTW thats the same as a 8800GTX posted above, Wth?
i still think the gtx350 will be worth it or at least wait a while till the price drops after its release, but then there will be something bigger and better. i.t. industry is a never winning situation. thats the reason im in the mechanical industry instead of i.t.
mind you, you can have the latest and greatest grfx cards in the world, but it comes down to the o/s, drivers and software to take full advantage of the hardware, like my situation, i had money when the 98gx2 came out, i got 2 of them, then about a month later the gtx280 / 260 was released, i felt like i had wasted $1200aud on brick heaters, and a single gtx280 kicks its ass which is really disappointing. :banana::banana::banana::banana: happens i guess.
This really requires a quadcore and a lot of memory!
Version: Build 7000 x64
EIS: 4.3
Whitebox: HP xw6600
CPU: E5410 2.33GHz (7.1)
RAM: 8x2GB DDR2-667 FBDIMM (7.1)
HDD: 1x300GB VelociRaptor (5.9)
GPU: eVGA 7300GT (4.7/4.3)
youve got 16gb ddr2 667?
as for win7 needing a qaud core and lots of memory, to max out the benchmark yes, but they designed win7 to use less resources than vista, and if i can run vista on a old acer travelmate 2480 1.73ghz celeron m 2gb ram then i think it will have alot of flexibility for older systems
i still wanna see a cpu of 7.9....common ppl!! lol
i managed to get an extra .1 point for gaming graphics by using the classic theme and disabling visual affects! now my whole system will run faster! lol
i wonder how much of an improvement other ppl will get by doing the same?
i think even if i o.c. to 4ghz i wont see any more than 7.5 if im lucky for cpu.
there we go 4.00ghz scored me a 7.5 for cpu, im satisfied with that...for now, i wonder if a can hit 4.22 like my old e8400, check out my cpu voltage tho, i had to increase it a bit, 3.5 was about the best i could do at the stock 1.25v im quite impressed considering all other volts are set to auto apart from forcing the ddr3 to 1.90v

Here it is
Windows7 Perf index is the crappiest benchmark score I've ever seen! I overclocked my Athlon 64 X2 5000+ 2600MHz up to ~3200MHz and got the same index 5.8 for the CPU. LOL! :ROTF:
if you look at my screen shot i score 7.5 with my q9550 @4ghz, at stock 2.83ghz it gets 7.3.
there are a couple lucky ppl on this thread with intels new i7 chipsets, mildly overclocked that are just about at 7.9, put 2 and 2 together and you get 4 but the point is that its got better and newer cpu's in mind for the benchmark side of win7 so you cant max out the cpu with something as brilliant as an intel e2140 pentium d/core or 2gb of ddr2 667 or a nvidia 7600gs :ROTF:
get what im sayin? it wil take the latest and greatest and maybe thensome to tie this snake in a knot.
:up:
I get 6.0 with gaming and HDD being the lowest.... :rolleyes:
This new rating system blows, seems geared toward SSD and future GPU's...hell even Quad SLI ain't getting 7.9 :rolleyes:
I have two 74GB VelociRaptors in RAID 0 and only get 6.0?????????...i think this new ratings system is designed to last for a few hardware cycles and not to be rendered obsolete or maxed out by the next gen card or HDD...
I think the iCore 7's are doing well as it must be related to calculations per second etc. and the fact it's 8-core multithreaded. My memory is 1100MHz, but i bet if had had 6GB or 8GB installed the score would go up.
Can you guys post your raw metrics?
Like I know my memory bandwidth is 10.6 GB/s, and if it wasn't for the
<LimitApplied Friendly="Physical memory available to the OS is less than 4.0GB on 64-bit OS - limit mem score to 5.9" Relation="LT">4294967296</LimitApplied>
I would probably have higher.
JESUS! what have i been trying to say here about future designing!? :ROTF::ROTF: thankyou for repointing this out maybe other ppl will realize your post more than mine(s) and think..hey that persons right thats why i cant max out this bench with a 486dx2/66 (but its overclocked!)?????:rofl:Quote:

howd u get a high score with 4gb ram? i got 5.5?? i really need 6gb cos i got the quad sli which is total of 2gb vddr3 it leaves me with 2gb, then 1gb for Win7 and 1gb or less for gaiming then its relying on my crappy scoring big 1tb 7000rpm page file lol
6 gb of DDR 3 running at my stock 1600 = 7.9. 3 gb ddr3 at 2000mhz 8,8,8,21 = 6. Speed is secondary to amount.
HDD score is going off access times, so SSD or low score. Probably need OS on ram to get 7.9.
gaming graphics pcie 2 and dual gpu minimum.
It it just scanning for new tech, not necessarily speed of hardware.
