Exactly!

This test has no real value at ALL. Even with my brand new i7 2600K rig I only score a 5.9 because I run a standard HDD(tho is a SATA 3) yet the rest of my rig scores a 7.8 across the board.

The ONLY way to raise your score in this useless "benchmark" is to have an SSD or a RAID array.

These scores mean VERY little in real world applications.

I score nearly 28K in 3Dmark 06 and and close to 5k in 3Dmark 11 those are benchmarks that actually MEAN something.

THOSE are benchmark scores that actually have some validity
