It says my lowest item in my computer is my "graphics" and "gaming graphics". Which makes my computer a 6, but my cpu and memory are rated as a 7.4 and primary disk is rated a 7.1.
My graphics card is a 9800GX2. Does anybody know if my 6 rating has anything to do with Windows 7 not using both of the GPUs in my card, or does it simply have a database of what my card is and it rates it on that?
Either way, I would have thought a 9800GX2 would have rated higher. I guess I'm assuming that the nicest gaming rig would score a 9 or 10 across the board, but perhaps that's not the case either. If it is though, than my system is pretty crappy, even considering I have a Q9450 OCed @ 3.2Ghz , SSD, and 8GB of memory with my 9800GX2.
In rating terms, isn't 8.0 considered average? So I have a below average computer or graphics card? hmm.
Can others that have Vista or Win7 throw out some of their system rating numbers so I can get a feel.
From this it seems Windows is telling me my graphics card is pretty crappy from the sound of it.
I know I shouldn't be using this number as the end all for measuring performance, but it's sorta got me a little curious too. Thanks for any numbers you can throw my way.
