All mecanical drives will have 5.9, SSD's will give a 7. something score.

Processor: 7.5
Memory 7.7 Graphics 6.9 Gaming Graphics 6.9 PHD: 5.9 Overall (by lowest) 5.9. I actually think this is a pretty decent attempt to overcome the vast differences in hardware/software output and compile a general 'performance index'. I wouldn't mind seeing these levels stated on the back of game boxes etc 'must have WEI of 6 to play this game' etc. |

I found some info on this if you feel your SSD drive score seems low. chk out post by elmo2006 about 1/2 way down thread. It did give me a good boost in that ssd score.

AARPRazorbacks, you think that someone who questions Microsoft's simplistic, and self-evidently flawed, 'rating' system is a troll do you? Ok, then find some links to knowledgeable outside sources that think it should be used as a tool for determining hardware/software compatibility.
It is a gimmick, and/or a way for Microsoft to boost sales. Anyone wishing to know what hardware is needed to run an application should look at the recommended specification, not at numbers pulled out of a hat.

This IS NOT a accurate way of grading ones PC... i have 7.9 on everything apart from my HDD which is 5.9... guess what score i get... 5.9 beacause it is the lowest grade shown.. Its not a professional piece of benchmarking by any means.. |

Ze-Jamz gets 7.9 for his HD 6950, I get 6.4 for an HD 6970, and we are supposed to take the figures seriously? Yeah, right....
Bullpoop!

I could go from a HD5770 1gig to a HD6950 2gig and my score doesn't change...so does that mean that based on your assumption that i wouldn't see an increase in FPS ingame? Thats my first point, my second is that fact that this couldny possibly be used for a professional benchmarking program..no ifs or buts As already stated its a 'Windows' toy..nothing more |

But yeah it's certainly not immediately apparent what the numbers actually mean, or how to usefully apply them to either hardware or software. Not a great system, but as a move towards a global 'shorthand' for system requirements, I think it's a reasonable first step. |
