(Note that all other components are anywhere from 7.3-7.9 with the exception of my harddisk, which is a 5.9) Apparently Gaming Graphics and WINDOWS DESKTOP GRAPHICS are calculated seperately. Guess which one is 3.8. Huh. That's pretty nuts that a modern graphics card could have such "poor" 2D performance. I guess this conclusively proves that the score is pretty useless. Well there you go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nappi Posted February 29, 2012 Windows Experience Index is the weirdest thing. Does anyone know why to scoring is from 1.0 to 7.9, by the way? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think they just picked a number so they could increase it. With Vista it was 1.0 to 5.9. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lu Posted February 29, 2012 Yea, I think the idea was that as the hardware got better, that number would get higher. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
