Well done Syber, the best overall score we have seen and all 8's, nice and balanced in a WEI type way. 

Welcome to the world of serious graphics cards too. 

Thanks Data, though I might have to get into gaming now, with some new games lol
though the gpu was mostly purchased for my studio work

okay I re-did my os and here is a screenshot of the wei before I activate Nvidia Surround which drops both graphics scores to 8.0

edit: note my ssd index score went down with this new build, it use to be 8.1 O' well it is still blazing fast

Very nice Syber, I've noticed the SSD scores can fluctuate up and down too, it's all to do with free space and TRIM I believe.

That score should just be good enough to play the built in card games in Windows, just :  

I'm not too sure Data I heard some story about windows 8 card games eating gpus for breakfast 

Very nice WEI score. What is the max in win8?

I want mine to go to 11!

Thanks Snowcrash, I believe the highest obtainable score is 8.9
you may need to w8 for windows 11 to be able to obtain an 11

I found out that there was a firmware update for the MoBo a few days ago, that was supposed to not only help with system stability, but also to improve Windows 8 performance. While I was at it, I also looked into a few BIOS "tweaks", and other minor things to help with performance. I think it helped a little.

Sweet score there Dave congrats. 

Wow that has shot up, much more like the score I was expecting for your quad core with quad channel RAM.

Just checked your previous scores. That's jumped up a lot.

Looks like you've got your rig running sweet. 

8.8 :O way to go Dave.  I will not be show this to Trinity for she will get jealous  

My WEI improved 

Here's my old one : http://www.datahopa.co.uk/forum/pc-hardware/show-us-your-wei/msg8029/#msg8029

CPU/Memory up from 7.2 to 7.6

SSD Up from 7.7 to 7.9

GPU remains the same for now.

Not quite in the league of Dave's or Syber's beasts, but for around £350.00 I think it's pretty good 

It does seem faster just in general, even snappier than the old build.  Looking forward to the gaming

Looking good mate 

Very nice to see the SSD is now maxed out on the SATA 3.

Thanks

Do the CPU and RAM look right to you ?

I thought your RAM was the same as what I bought, but I thought your RAM was coming up faster in the WEI 

Or is that because you are over-clocking it ?
