Windows Experience Index

[Travis King]

I'm surprised. My index rating actually went up from beta 2. I now have a
3.3 instead of a 3.0
Beta 2:
CPU: 3.1
RAM: 3.0
HD: 3.7
GPU RAM: 4.3
GPU: 5.9
RC1:
CPU: 3.3
RAM: 4.0
HD: 5.0
GPU RAM: 4.6
GPU: 4.5 (lower than beta 2)

Yes because of OEM complaints!

I made a 2.0 (was 1)
My lowly FX5200 gets a 2.0
but what is weird is it gets a 2.5 as a Gaming Graphics????
My Primary HD rates a 5.2. Huh!
I'll bite, which drive is "Primary" as I have a NON-Standard
configuration. The 2 drives are identical models, BUT the Vista drive
(F is on the standard EISE motherboard channel and my XPpro drive
(C is a broken Mirror, on a Si680 Raid Controller.

Company Portal.
