Windows Experience Index Scores

What are yours???

Published on March 24, 2007 By Armbut In Windows Vista

Hey there. I'm just wondering for those who have Vista, what your Windows Experience Ratings are?

My Specs:
AMD Athlon 64 2 3800+ 2.0GHz--4.8
1GB PC4200 DDR2 Dual Channel RAM--4.5
ATI Radeon X1300 Pro 256MB--4.7 Graphics; --4.2 Gaming Graphics
160GB SATA 3.0GB/s Hard Drive

My Base Score is 4.2 (Gaming Graphics is lowest subscore)

Upgrade my Nvidia 6600GT Driver and my score went up from 4.1 to 4.3.
Thanx Nvidia.

Not sure why but I think that some of them are wrong like my processor and ram ratings...I see some people have way lower processor Ghz and even lower RAM memory with higher scores...Anyone has any suggestions on how to improve my scores if possible?

everyone the secret to getting ur score higher is oc ing i was able to push a 7300le core 450mhz to 520mhz mem 324 mhz to 1000 mhz nvidia does not want to have to make a different card all the time so any gt/le can perform as any gtx by 0verclocking just make the cooling solution better and watch your gt outscore your friends' gtx without even trying.

Well, new driver didn't do diddley, so I had a go at Google and found the reason and solution.

TweakVI is the culprit. By default it disables access to the experience score plus all features related to this. I got full access once this option had been enabled
But my GFX score is still as crappy as before....

Video is killing me on the numbers - although everything works fine for me.

Guys - you know overclocking is bad right? Shortens hardware life.

Mine isn't any more...CPU was over-clocked (oops, boo boo on the last entry) from 2.41Ghz to 2.6Ghz. However the performance gain was very minimal and wasn't worth risking my hardware over, so everything on my rig is now running at factory settings....my CPU being back at 2.41Ghz.

I have a score of 3.2

Everything is at 5 or UP but my graphics card is "internal" and I want a better one and I think that is what is keepin my Graphics from reaching 5.0 or anything else to get me a score of 5.0 or somewhere near there...

I tried all sorts of drivers and still stuck at 3.2... I will try a new video card when I can afford the one i want...
