Hi all, I have install a Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD3R with i7, 6gb ram and when i do windows indexing i am only getting 6 for gfx. on my other setup i was getting 7.8. any advice would be good. I have latest drivers for gfx card and chipset drivers for mobo.

Windows does really bad job with this m8, i would not pay attention to it as long as your card performs well when you play games.

Bench it, there are loadsa of programs to help you with that, Future mark is one of them

I think it's been already mentioned in other topics...the reason you are getting a low gfx score in window experience is because the card is more recent than Windows 7 itself, therefore it doesn't have 5870 in its database or something.

Windows index score is for people who don't have a clue don't worry about it unless you have bad perfomance in games .
