pulsar85 Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Ive had this almost a year and i remember getting 7.5 windows experience score and now that i bought a new graphics card gtx 670 i ran it again but now its at 5.9 score. Ive ran some HDD tests and its far below its specified speed. It is connected to the gray intel 6gb/s port with a 6gb cable. All other marvell/jme are disabled. Updated to latest firmware but nothing changed, AHCI is enabled in bios and i did a fresh install with it when i got it. this test seems to show normal values? If so why dont other tests and why has my WEI score suddenly dropped? http://img707.imageshack.us/img707/4761/attoqe.jpg but all other test ive done shows really bad speeds http://img521.imageshack.us/img521/9459/asssdx.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toasted Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 ATTO uses compressible data to benchmark the drives. It is the benchmark Corsair uses to advertise the speeds of the drives. CrystalDiskMark is incompressible. WEI is not a benchmark. The Windows Experience Index is designed to accommodate advances in computer technology. As hardware speed and performance improve, higher score ranges will be enabled. The standards for each level of the index generally stay the same. However, in some cases, new tests might be developed that can result in lower scores. From: Windows Help and Support Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted July 2, 2012 Corsair Employee Share Posted July 2, 2012 Our Hours are Monday Through Friday 8:30 AM to 5:30 PM Pacific Time Excluding Holidays. So I am sorry but support was not open when you posted that... With WEI Scores I am sorry but take that up with Miocrosoft.. Atto is the benchmark we use and your scores look fine in that bench mark. So I am not sure what it is you want us to help you with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wired Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 WEI is not a real benchmark. Microsoft can change how it works at will. The end result can also be manipulated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
