What's your Windows Experience Index score?

[Dim]

Hi guys,

All of us know that in actual use, the WEI is no more indicative of performance than a benchmark with outdated drivers.

However, it does provide a good general idea of the level of prestige in a person's machine.

And I find it kind of fun :P

A few other forums have this, but I think we should have it too--this is the only real software sub-forum and it's under the hardware forum, so it seems fitting to me.

Any enthusiasts out there with 9.9 WEI? I have seen no one above 8.9... (7.9 max for Windows 7, 9.9 max for Windows 8).

I will post a pic of mine once my WEI finishes refreshing.

Not bad at all, what SSD do you have?

Nice rig!

Should try OC'ing your 3930K; you should be able to get over 4.4GHz with that cooler and that should in theory get you 7.9 in Win7 and 8.1+ in Win8 (not to mention a drastic increase in performance!)

Of course it's possible it already is OC'd... Windows 7 just fails at benchmarking in general :P

[Dave :)]

Amazing how a 3930k doesn't reach 7.9 with WEI. :D Makes no sense haha.

[Dim]

It very well should.

Actually, I do remember seeing a post somewhere else (I think Windows 8 forums?) where a user had TWO i7 3960X CPUs both overclocked to 5GHz. I think he got a 9.0 or something in processor.

If two 3960X gets only a 9.0, it'll be ten years before a 9.9 score becomes viable for 1% of the population...

Haha, WEI is such a joke.

Indeed. But it makes me feel better about myself as a builder ;) and that's what matters at the end of the day, isn't it? Pure self-satisfaction.

Yeah, you're right. At the end of the day, if we're satisfied, then that's all that matters really. :D

Not sure if you linked a photo or not, but we can't see anything, nice rig by the way. :)

[Dim]

I can see a photo ... pity! Hard disk held back by a lack of an SSD

Well, it is 2013 my friend. It's become a necessity ;)

Just curious......why didn't you overclock your 3570k further?

Unfortunately, my 3570K refused outright to boot beyond 4.2GHz.

I'm not sure if it's my motherboard or the HSF, but I'm not too phased. 4.2GHz is all I really expected with an air cooler at that price anyway.
