Vista WEI score - Page 4

**Johnny** · December 8th, 2006

yeah, Kc. I didn't run Aero. My video card won't support it ..

GEN3RIC · December 8th, 2006

3.7

AMD 64 Winchester 3000+
2x512 Corsair CMX512-3200C2
Chaintech 6800GT
Maxtor DiamondMax 10 7200-16 200GB

Everything is clocked at factory defaults...

edit: anybody know why my 256MB 6800GT is getting 256MB of shared memory? That 1GB of memory I have is precious - and I dont want my GPU using it!

jonny813 · December 8th, 2006

Don't have any screenshots as not currently running, but i got a 1 (so annoyed)

AMD Sempron 3300+
160GB Maxtor Hard Drive
1GB Kingston RAM
128MB nVidia GeForce 3000

As a result of the graphics I don't get the Aero look at all, jealous

lol

GEN3RIC · December 8th, 2006

Just overclocked to 1.89Ghz, then 1.98Ghz and got a 4.0 both times...

Hmm - I wonder how well this is improving real world performance.

**madmatt** · March 3rd, 2007

Updated drivers for my video card and the CPU score jumped up to 5.5 (from 5.4). It must be having a good day.

Tweakfiend · March 3rd, 2007

4.2 Index ... let down by graphics

Smoke286 · March 4th, 2007

-With my new machine its 5.1

Racer_600 · March 4th, 2007

I finally got vista running on my new machine i build back in Sept. and scored:

CPU 5.0
RAM 5.9
Graphics 5.9
Gaming Graphics 5.8
Harddrive 5.9

Wow, my AMD 64 X2 4600+ is holding back my system.
And I feel the need to mention I put 5 320 gig drives in a RAID 5 for 1.06 TB on this system.

wasted_d · March 4th, 2007

vista ultimate 32bit, i hate my memory

**ElementalDragon** · March 4th, 2007

yeah, i think it goes by the actual CPU type itself, not by the speed you OC it to.

**Vanquished** · March 4th, 2007

My scores were good except for mem
5.9 on everything but processor and mem
5.2 on processor.
4.2 on mem all 4 slots are filled...
Thus it thinks they are single channel

Also, none of the games seem to work well.
I guess CSS is ok, i get about 150fps average and COD2 really stinks, the menu is completely messed up and the fps seem low.

I have a 7900gt ko superclocked.

ram isn't dual or single channel. ram is ram. single/dual channel is how many ram modules the cpu can talk to at once. single channel means it can only address one ram bank at once with a 64bit data path. dual channel means it can access 2 banks at once with a 128bit data path.

The optimal setup is 2 x 1GB modules for 32 bit and 2x2GB modules for 64bit unless you need more ram for 64bit.

I know that silly.
I have all for slots used up...
Thus it says single channel, rather than dual channel...

I recently went from mismatched 2x512 DDR2700 to (sold as a kit for DC) 2x1Go Crucial DDR3200: my mobo activated Dual Channel at once.

Going two by two (A0-B0 and A1-B1), I guess at least one of your memory stick mismatches with the other one it should be working with for Dual Channel.

In my case, my CPU (AMD 2600+ running as a 2800+) is holding my system back to 3.5 (see attached pic)

If I want to have my score go higher, I would need to change the CPU, going along with changing Mobo and Video (Radeon x850 *AGP*): with more money spared, in a few months I guess

**ShepsCrook** · March 5th, 2007

I got a 5.0...

My AMD Opteron 175 Dual core at 2.2ghz got a 5.0
My 2GB of memory got a 5.1
Graphics got a 5.9
Gaming Graphics got a 5.8
Primary Hard Disk got a 5.9

**LordOfLA** · March 5th, 2007

what are you using for 5.9 hdd?

**ShepsCrook** · March 5th, 2007

Dual 74GB Raptors with 16mb cache per drive in Raid 0

**LordOfLA** · March 5th, 2007

ah I figured it'd be that

fast little drives them

**ShepsCrook** · March 5th, 2007

Yeah, I'm just shocked my Opteron and my ram got that low of marks...
