mezzanine Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 wht is the highest you can get I'm getting 5.7 from my E6400 @ 3.2Ghz Base Score 5.3 (HD) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kernatch Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 wht is the highest you can get perhaps 10, or maybe there's no limit. either way they've designed it so future technology will continue to get higher ratings. i'd imagine no current hardware can reach the limit.

LordEdmond Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 5.5 here its the hard disk transfer rate that hold me down , GFX runs at 5.9 with a x1900xtx but that should go up when the 8800gtx BFG water cooled card gets here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sinlogik Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 Out of curiousity what's your cpu rated at? That's the next cpu I want :) Mine is the same as Zone-MR, it is 5.3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phemo Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 5.7 here. Core 2 Duo E6600 at 3.2GHz (The system info says 2.4GHz because that's the CPU ID string) 2GB of DDR2 GeForce 7800 GTX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acido00 Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 so, what will be the best score in the Vista? 9.9?? or 10.0?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ambroos Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 5.9 is the current best, but i guess they just limited that to make free space for the Quad Cores, DX10 cards, Hybrid harddisks and DDR3 for PC's. Anyway, i'll probably finish with a zero or a 1 because of my Riva TNT2, 30Gig slow HD, 256MB SDRAM etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeChipshop Member Posted November 15, 2006 Member Share Posted November 15, 2006 so, what will be the best score in the Vista? 9.9?? or 10.0?? There is no top level score, it's designed to raise with technological advances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheNay Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 There is no top level score, it's designed to raise with technological advances. That would make sense to a degree, however I find this all confusing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zone-MR Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 How come Phemo's E6600 gets a 5.7 and my E6600 only gets a 5.3! Woo... a virtual phallus size contest - this thread is bound to be popular :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FusionXN1 Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 Processor lets me down, would be 5.4 but the processor takes me to 4.3 :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raskren Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 There is no top level score, it's designed to raise with technological advances. The highest score you can obtain with RC2 and more than likely the real RTM is 5.9, so that would be the current "top level score." Microsoft can and will raise it at will in the future; probably with hotfixes and/or service packs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamend Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 I'm guessing there are artificial limits, like single core/32-bit processors being capped at 3.9, dual core at 5.9, DX 9 GPUs at 5.9, non flash-enabled HDDs at 5.9, etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
