POST YOUR VISTA PERFORMANCE RATING

Mine is 4.5 with my new labby... Core 2 Duo t2700 and x1700

Mine is 4.7, lowest score is my Pentium D 3Ghz

My AMD X2 5000+ CPU rates a 2.1 because of the Asus M2NPV-VM motherboard onboard GeForce6150 graphics. Considering that I am playing games at the same fps or faster than on my XP PC, I don't think I will worry about it. It looks like their hardware rating is bogus and possibly slanted towards certain devices. I would like Toms to figure out if they use a featurelist, a manufacturer list, a driver list or a real test.

It'd be easier if they used an actual test then having a compiled list. A 5000+ getting a score like that though, it's just plain weird.

I was just messing around with this Unknown Device with no manufacturer or hardware information listed for it that I have had since day 1 and couldn't figure out what it was. I found a website that allowed for a trial scan of my compute for driver updates. It determined that it was for an iMON USB device from Sound Graphics. I don't have anything like that on my system. I installed the driver, which Vista somehow had related to my PPC6700 phone docking station (which was already syncing correctly so I have no idea what it did). My graphic card peformance suddenly went from 2.1 to 2.4. Huh? This is a driver not graphic peformance related in any way. For whatever reason, now I sit at 2.4 because the performance is based on your lowest score. The totals: CPU:5.2,RAM:5.9,Graphics:4.6,Gaming:2.4,HDisk:5.6. Yeah, this perf rating thingy is a crock.

5.3

i assume thats pretty good. im happy.

5.0

My C2D 6400 is the bottleneck
I don't think the index uses a precompiled list because OCing my C2D gets me higher results. 5.2 was an easy one.

OTOH, I also had a 5.0 with my Pent D 945. Don't know why.

Here a screen of my last install with the Pent D.

4.4 because I did it on an old ATA hard drive.

I'm using the SoundMax built onto the board - in no way related to graphics.

My ePen!s is 5.7

5.7 for my E6400 @ 3.2GHz and everything else is 5.9 (2G RAM, 7900GS, Atlas 15K II)

maybe not tight enough timings on the memory?

Mine is 2GB 2-3-2-5 1T I think.

It's not as much the amount of ram as the speed/type of RAM. I have 2G, but it is DDR2-800 and I got a 5.9 for that.

5.3... specs in sig.

Processor 5.1
Memory 5.4
Graphics 3.7
Gaming Graphics 3.6
Hard Disk 5.0

No OC, 533 memory, integrated graphics and a recycled 60GB IDE HD.

I can live with this until the mid range, single slot DX10 cards show up

5.0 'cuz my CPU.
Twas 4.6 before I OC'd. Everything else is 'round 5.9.
My rig in the sig.
