    If gives you no idea at all. For e.g, Tundra's bulldozer rig gets the same RAM score as mine, yet it's MASSIVELY slower. It's b0ll0x... utter and complete ball sacks. Pay no attention to it. I couldn't care less if it says 1.0 for everything... use decent benchmarks if you want to compare your rig to others. This is purely a scam to make people upgrade, and far from accurate.

    For my sig rig:

    CPU: 7.5
    Memory: 7.7 - Quite surprising for 1066MHz DDR2
    Graphics: 7.8
    Gaming Graphics: 7.8
    Hard drive: 7.5 - SSD is on a SATA 2 connection

    I just noticed what score my Llano A8-3870K is getting at stock (3 GHz), with nothing in the system optimised. The 2700K I recently sold didn't max out at 7.9 until I clocked it to 5GHz and beyond. The Llano at 3 GHz is scoring 7.3! I think I can safely say that those scores cannot possibly be accurate, the Llano doesn't outperform SB clock for clock :) I need to start folding on it to see how it really compares :)

    Yeah, 7.9 is the maximum for each value. My SB system maxed everything out at 7.9. Will do again when I get a 3770K in it :) That's with 2133 MHz RAM, 2 x SSD in RAID 0 and a GTX 570 overclocked to the max with a modified BIOS :)

    I reckon my 3930K will max it out as well when I get to playing with it :) Not so sure the Llano will though, the max I have got out of it under air is 3.7 GHz, not sure yet how it will do under water. All my other systems are too old to come close! Most of them are only good for a bit of benching fun :)

    Intel Q6600 at stock speed (2.4), 2Gb PC2-8500 OCZ Fatality, Gigabyte GA-P41-ES3G Motherboard, OCZ Vertex 1, Nvidia GTX 280. Everything is running at stock speed.

    CPU: 7.1
    RAM: 5.5
    Graphics: 7.3
    Gaming Graphics: 7.3
    Primary HDD: 7.1

    I'll be upgrading a little bit to a 6 core AMD next week with 8 gigs DDR3, so am hoping for some slightly better scores

    I think anything that says my rig, at 1/2 the price of Pook's, compares anything near to his makes him rage. I'd leave off the subject.

    Processor: 7,4
    RAM: 7,5
    Graphics: 7,8
    Gaming: 7,8
    HDD: 7,9

    Yup, last night I finally swapped my noisy Velociraptor for two OCZ Agility3 120Gb in RAID0. It's damn fast now, and eerily quiet considering what I've been used to...

    I think i remember reading somewhere that you need a CPU with 8 full (non hyperthreaded) cores in order to get 7.9.

    3.8
    4.9
    4.1
    5.6
    5.9

    No, thats not my main rig, burt my e-350 based fileserver.

    I wonder how bad a GPU has to be to score lower than 4..

    My desktop (2500k at stock, 8GB RAM, 512Mb HD4850 and a mechanical HDD) is:
    7.5
    7.6
    7.3
    7.3
    5.9

    Not too shabby.

    IMO The WEI is a potentially good tool for games and software. Rather than sys req as something vague as "512Mb DX9 card or equivilent" they could just say "WEI of 6.5+ on graphics componant". Then as long as windows keep the performance of a 6.5 the same and just increase the numbers at the higher end as and when it updates to allow for bigger and better things to be rated.
