Windows 7 Experience Index Score

I thought mine would be much higher ....

Your overall score is your lowest score.

In your case (mine as well as most people too) 5.9 is the score for a standard 7200RPM Mechanical HDD.

Upgrade your HDD or ignore it.

I would (and do) ignore it...

Mine is 5.8, processor and RAM are the limiting factors - hope that makes you feel better

Who cares? A number can't express your experience better than yourself.

I also have 5.9 as my HDD gets 5.9. Everything else is in the 7's...

Wouldnt worry too much about it!

DampCat · 24 Oct 2009 at 10:19

Mine is 5.3, thanks to the HDD. So much for it being a Raptor!

Moeks · 24 Oct 2009 at 10:56

My lowest score is actually my graphics at 6.5

...hard drive is at 7.2 ...but then I have an SSD

...if I did a secure wipe and trimmed it, it'd probably go up a little more.

This is on the RC though, I have got a couple of copies of W7 here I just haven't had the chance/inclination to install either yet.

mine is 5.8 thats the hdd, everything else is well over 7!

Anybody hazard a guess as to why my memory score just dropped to 5.8 after installing 64bit instead of 32bit? :/

cplhardnut · 24 Oct 2009 at 13:03

My WD caviar black gives me the lowest score overall too of 5.9

Clairvoyant · 24 Oct 2009 at 13:11

7.5
7.5
7.6
7.6
5.9 (poor HD raid 0)

Not that I pay any attention to these.

How much memory do you have?

wiiija · 24 Oct 2009 at 13:46

4gb, scored 7.1 in 32bit!

Memphis · 24 Oct 2009 at 13:48

How odd.

LOAM · 24 Oct 2009 at 13:48

7.3 Here, lowest being the SSD

wiiija · 24 Oct 2009 at 13:49

I shall do a reinstall in a bit, I know the scores are pointless but it seems odd to have such a large drop

MeatLoaf · 24 Oct 2009 at 13:55

Heres mine after i installed home premium, velociraptor only gets 5.9, same as the samsung 5400rpm green drive did last week on the RC build

6thElement · 24 Oct 2009 at 14:07

I get 3.3, my HDD is the highest at 4.3

peahead · 24 Oct 2009 at 14:08
