What is your windows 8 experience index score?

[shamsmu]

I know WEI doesn't mean much but the windows 8 experience index assessment seems way more critical then the previous versions of windows. My rig was totally brought to its knees. So I am genuinely wondering how the rest of you windows 8 users are fairing up at this. So post your scores to this thread-

pretty good scores for a stock clocked i7 2600

Those scores look pretty good to me, I think stating that your rig was "totally brought to it knees" is a a bit too dramatic.

hahaha the 670 is one of the most powerful cards out right now and it only scores that i think it's a bit harsh but who cares lol

I have yet to update my chipset drivers and such, as I just finished installing Windows 8 Pro, so I don't know if these numbers are concrete.

not only that it also achieved a 1323/7150mhz stable overclock easily scores 11000 in 3dmark 11. I wonder what it would take to score 8.1+ in WEI.

My rig couldn't even manage to score 80% of the highest possible scores. It think thats "pretty devastating" for a gaming pc.

Mine is a 5.9 due to having a HDD. Next is 7.9 on both CPU and RAM then 8.1 from Graphics.

WHOA 8.6 for gpu??

how did you do it?

 

[gomerpile]

over clocked tri, sli, cpu over clocked. the board gd55/80. running 3 graphic cards makes the difference.

I have version 3 already waiting for CPU, had to order the cpu. I'll have it in a week I'll do a new mark once its installed.
