I have a new PC I just built that is being rated "unfairly" by Windows 7: Here are the details: Processor: AMD Phenom II X4 945 -> rated 7.3 Memory: 4 GIG DDR3 RAM -> rated 7.5 Graphics (Desktop Performance for Aero) -> rated 4.2 Gaming Graphics: ( NVIDIA GeForce 9500 GT 1 MB Memory)-> 6.2 Primary Hard Disk: (1 TB Seagate SATA) -> rated 5.9 (cleaned and defragmented) The motherboard is Gigabyte GA-MA770T-UD3P
I don't understand how the Graphics for Aero is is so much lower that the Graphics for gaming? Also, how a SATA hard drive be rated so low? Any thoughts about any tweaking I can do to improve some of these ratings?

Don't be bothered by this as long as everything works in reality. It's just a benchmark!

It says the maximum score for W7 Performance is 7.9. The utility is not rating your equipment for quality or functionality - it is rating it in terms of it's effect on Windows OS performance. So most likely that Graphics for Aero device is a resource hog, or has memory leaks, or behaves in some way that slows the performance of W7. I would think that a better driver for W7 would improve that score. As for the HDD I suspect the utility is measuring the actual transfer rate which has more to do with the motherboard's bus than the actual hard drive - the bottleneck.

Actually I think a 6.2 rating for that card is too high. Its a Low end budget gaming card and its probably given that 6.2 rating because it has 1GB of VRAM. Incidentally the card isnt fast enough to run present games at High enough settings to warrant 1GB - on a budget card 512mb is ample. That may sound harsh but Im just being straight with you. Treat that 4.2 as a gaming score.
Thank you all for the explanations - they make perfect sense. I use this computer as a Home computer - not as a gaming computer - I just thought I would get a better rating. Maybe in the future I'll invest in a better video card...

Also, I think the highest you'll get for a SATA HD is 5.9. I have a 1TB WD Caviar Black on a Core i7 system, and all it gets is 5.9, and that's limiting my overall score to 5.9. The most I have seen on any system in a store is 5.9. To exceed that, you will need an SSD.

What puzzles me the most is why the Graphics for Gaming (6.2) so much higher that the Graphics for Aero (4.2). I would have thought that the Aero graphics would be less demanding than Gaming Graphics...

Yeah... given that your GPU's gaming performance is so high, then one would think handling an Aero desktop would be a comparatively remedial task. It make no sense to me either. My scores came out even.

I've have 3 WD caviar black SATA2 HDDs configured for RAID 0. The array averages 263MB/s in HD Tune (default settings) but scores only 6.1! There must be quite a few wickedly fast storage devices floating around.

Maybe they're saving the perfect score, for this one. It is four SSDs RAIDed together, into a single plugin card.

5.9 isn't that bad. OTOH, just because a disc is SATA doesn't translate into fast performance. Doesn't confuse the speed of the interface with the speed at which data is read from or written to the platter.
If you want a fast hard disc, get a Western Digital Black.
I give it an overall rating of 2.2....are you really going to put any stock in that?....ratings are a good way of getting YOU to BUY NEW HARDWARE,,,,,the world needs your money!
