think like this....

Say I had 2GB of DDR2-800 and was marked accordingly.

Now, say I go buy 2x 128MB dimms of custom made DDR2-1200 then I use LN2 to cool the sticks and force them to DDR2-1800 with timings of 4,4,4,1,1t in dual channel mode.

Do you now think vista will score me 7.9 on memory simply because my memory is super duper fast?

Ofcourse not, apperature has to play a role. Speed is not the only factor.

Isn't the test benchmarking the speed? Why would size have anything to do with it besides in you example tons of paging because of only 256MB ram. For 4GB versus 8GB I don't see why the huge jump.

Theres actually a formula.

Operations per second, memory throughput in MB/s combined with aperture = WEI score.

I calculate that 8GB-16GB of DDR2/3 at 8,000MB/s+ is required for a 7.9

I'd like to see ANDREYANG's WEI memory score.....I think we can safely say he'd get a 7.9

why the huge jump? i can understand why cos i have to use a stupid page file!lol im gonna get hold of x64 cos of this reason: 4gb ram, 2gb video mem, 2gb remain, 1gb for o.s, leaves less than 1gb for gaming/apps, i got the famous running low on memory so i had to use the old pagefile to fix it but i hate page files, unless your running off a ssd setup. thats why i can understand why they jump so much, i really need to consider at least 6gb if i can find some more super talent 1800 somewhere.
