Re: [H] Windows 7 Experience Index
The highest disk score for a magnetic drive I've seen is indeed 5.9...and that's on 7.2k SATA, 10k SATA, or 15k SAS. My 2x Intel G2 SSD array gets a 7.9 (highest possible) though. A single Intel G2 seems to get around a 7.7, and the OCZ Vertex gets around a 7.3. -Original Message- From: hardware-boun...@hardwaregroup.com [mailto:hardware-boun...@hardwaregroup.com] On Behalf Of Anthony Q.

Primary HD: 5.9 (Does one need SSD to get faster, but this is ok for me) So, I'm looking for a cheap (ie, $75 or less) vidcard to get the Areo graphics up about 5.8 or so. I'm thinking of a Radeon 4670 but I can't find a Win7 EI score on it. Any ideas? BTW, on my home system I'm getting: 6.3, 5.5, 5.9, 5.9, and 5.7. I see an I5 on a cheap mobo in my future.

Ok5.9 (Aero) and 5.7 (gaming)according to here: http://forums.amd.com/game/messageview.cfm?catid=279&threadid=120377 I can live with these scores for $75. Anthony Q.
