Hi,

the performance rating tool is good, but where can we found some references?
my p4 2Ghz is rated 2.4 and my Radeon 9800 5.3
how a 3Ghz is rated? and a dual core? 32bits/64bits? etc...
how the latest video cards are rated?

thanks.

Jerome.

Not yet looked for a performance refence, but this is how my system is
rated with Vista Home Premium build 3508:

CPU: P4C 2.8 with HT: 3.6
RAM: 2GB (DDR PC3200 dual channel): 4.3
Primary HD: 14.4GB free (26.92 total): 4.9
Graphics: Radeon 9800 pro (MS WDDM driver): 5.6
Gaming Graphics: 127MB Graphics Memory: 4.2
Overall Rating: 3

I don't understand how the overall index is computed. My test machine gets
an overall rating of 2, even though each subrating is *over* 2 (video even
gets 5.3).

the rating is based on the slowest component.
(the CPU in my case)

How do we find out the individual scores of each component that we have?

Since others are posting their numbers, here's the results for my Shuttle
SN85G4:

AMD Athlon 64 3000+ 4.6
2Gb RAM 4.4
HD (Barracuda 7200.7) 5.1
Radeon 9600 Series 3.2
Gaming 255Mb 3.1

Overall Result: 3

Guess I should be looking for a better graphics card - though I do have an
AGP nVidia Geforce FX5500 256Mb lying around doing nothing. I wonder if
that would be better?

FX5500? Not sure. You should look for something like a 7800GS if you
want a good AGP card
