Anyone want to share their epeen size Windows Experience Index? It's practically meaningless, but could be fun.

I have a 7.1, brought down by my SSD of all things.

Brought down by my aging cpu and ram, both of which, along with a mobo, will be replaced next year when the new processor's come out.

Jeez Frank, way to slaughter everyone's scores ;)

Here's mine... I have the typical hard drive bringing down the overall score problem:

The amount of VRAM some of you are sporting really raises my eyebrows. Most video cards don't have more than 2, possibly 3GB onboard, so when I see 8GB, it makes me wonder if you have the "shared with system RAM" turned on.

So does that increase or decrease your score? And how the heck do you do something like that on a machine like mine?

It's usually something you enable/disable in the driver. Usually it drags down your actual performance due to bus contention, though if the WEI mark is based solely on the amount of VRAM, having more of it will give you a higher score.

It shouldn't mess with the score that much. It's doing performance not quantity.

If anything, it's dragging you down.

For the record, I have 4 gigs from 2 2 gig cards.

You know I never even payed attention, but I do know my 460 only has 768MB. Time to go check on my driver settings.

5.9 on my Asus G60J gaming notebook computer. Which isn't bad, I think, for a notebook computer that's over 3 years old.

Hey, I just noticed that was my computer reporting that ridiculous number. It should only be about 1000MB... what's up with that?

Aha! I, too, seem to have 'shared video memory' showing up in there, because my card is only a 1Gig card.

How the hell do I turn this off? I can't find an option anywhere in nvidia's control panel, and initial web searches seem to yield no usable info other than people shrugging.
