I know its a pretty pointless function, and might not mean much, but anyhow. Is it possible to get a rating of 6.0? or even higher?
My rating is 5.8 (CPU score 5,8 E8500@4.16Mhz) the rest is 5.9.

Not as yet no. Maybe they will extend in later updates or service packs.

Quote:
The scale of the Windows Experience Index ranges from 1 to 5.9. The higher the score for a particular performance area, the better performance you can expect from that area.

The scale is useful when comparing hardware components and when comparing whole PCs. The scale was created so that a full score point of improvement usually means significant additional capabilities in the particular sub area, while a better fractional score means an incremental improvement. The integer number of a base score is referred to as the Windows Experience Index base score level. For example a PC with a Windows Experience Index base score of 5.3 is considered a level 5 PC.

Over time, we expect to introduce higher scale levels of 6 and beyond. This will be done approximately every 12-18 months, as new innovations in hardware become available. When new base scores are introduced, existing scores will not change (i.e. a PC with a base scored of 2.2 today will score a 2.2 in the new updated index, unless its components are upgraded).


Nice score btw! 4.16Mhz!? Shocked

May the NFOrce be with you always.

I read you need a Quad Core CPU or a Xeon Dual Core for 5.9.

May the NFOrce be with you always.

Yeah, sounds about right. Vista is really built for multicore machines.

Hmm, the weird thing is that I also have a 5.8 CPU rating, but with a modest e6750 which is right now not even overclocked (~2666Mhz). If this can help you to ponder how relevant is this vista rating. Smile
