I know it isn't completely accurate or anything but is a score of 5.9 for memory about right for 4gb of Kingston HyperX PC8500 RAM?

The only reason I ask is because when I first ran it I got 7.5, the same as my CPU.
But then it told me it had detected hardware changes and needed to be re-run, and now it won't go past 5.9 on memory, just wondering whether the first run was inaccurate.

The rest of the score is:
7.5 CPU
5.9 Memory
7.1 Graphics
7.1 Gaming
7.8 Hard drive

Windows 7 64bit
q9550 4ghz
4gb pc8500
4870x2
Intel 80gb SSD
 
Not sure, mine seems very low too - getting 5.5 for my RAM which seems a tad ridiculous!

4GB DDR3 1600 C8 should surely be a higher score than that! OK, I know WEI means little, but... :(

edit: Thats PC3-12800
 
Figured out why mine was at 5.9.
I had messed around with the boot settings in msconfig, and for some reason Windows reported me having 4gb but only 3gb usable.
I changed the boot setting again to get my 4gb usable back and now my index is back up to 7.5 :)
Apparently W7 caps it at 5.9 if you have under 4GB ram.
