Can this thing be overclocked? :biggrin:
 
Huron River is pretty good.

All this and more than 6 hours of battery life on a 6-cell.

7.7 on a dual Xeon, plenty of RAM, forget the GPU, and a pair of Intel SSD.

I guaranteed it would kick most machines in this thread's ass.

What storage devices do you have to get 7.9?

I'm only at 7.6 with gen 1 vertex in Raid 0... /cry

At any rate:
CPU: 7.4
RAM: 7.4
GPU: 7.9
Gaming GPU: 7.9
Storage: 7.6

This with a q9550 @ 3.6GHz, 6970 @ 950Mhz/1435MHz, and 8GB of Ram @ 1400ish MHz, and 2 OCZ Vertex 120GB in Raid 0

3 intel G2's in Raid 0. :biggrin:

*beep beep* the only person im not passing in the IO department is RubyCon. 🙂
Well there are a few more others...
 
7.1 with rig in sig, and that's held back by the SSD, not bad for a 3 year old build : )

Though I'm pretty sure this index is the weakest possible benchmark you can count on.
 
WEI is not a reliable tool for measuring performance past the first number.

If you have all 7's then by all means, you have a strong computer. the difference between a 7.9 and a 7.4 is not as substantial as you may think.

The number after the decimal is not affected by performance, and is instead generated by examining the number of features present on the hardware itself.

the lack of a feature or two (TRIM, HT, DX11, etc) can knock that score after the decimal, but should not be a real indicator of performance.
 
I certainly don't put much trust into WEI, but here's mine:

Processor 7.8
Memory: 7.8
Graphics: 7.9
Gaming graphics: 7.9
Primary hard disk: 7.6

i7-2600k running at 4.6 GHz, 2x4 GB 1600 MHz 9-9-9-24, GTX 570 (stock), Corsair F120.

Is it even possible to hit 7.9 processor?

Dual Xeons of course cream your i7-2600K.

Need to figure out how to post pics.

FINISHED my build tonight. Swapped the 1.65V memory for double the amount of 1.5V memory, added the GTX 570. 😀 😀 😀 WEI is as follows:

CPU: 7.7
Memory: 7.8
Graphics: 7.9
Gaming Graphics: 7.9
Primary Hard Disk: 7.9

Best balanced system I've ever built. (Sure as hell the fastest!) Looks like I need a CPU upgrade. 😀 Or I might eventually try to squeeze a couple hundred more megahertz out of ol' Bessie.

***chuckle*** I'm surprised the test even completed.

Oh it will do anything - it just takes longer. A lot longer!

Think of it like this:

You can dig a hole yourself with a shovel to put in a swimming pool, but most people hire someone with an excavator. :biggrin:
