I don't know why I care, but everything is at 7.9 except for my damn CPU, which is at 7.8. I'm not sure what it takes to get a 7.9, but I'm guess it probably has very little to do with actual performance. It's probably core count or something

i was actually wondering what it took to get a 7.9 cpu score. i7 3570 i suppose?

My score is still a 5.9 because I'm too cheap to buy a ssd.

You mean i5-3570 or i7-3770? Either way, that ain't gonna do it because my 4770k at 4.7GHz is still getting 7.8.

I guess it does run some kind of synthetic benchmark, but it can't be worth a damn since the whole process takes only a couple of minutes to score every component. That's why I was curious how off-base it really is -- for example, if it were to give an 8320 or 8350 a 7.9 simply because it's sort of an 8-core processor.

I read somewhere that a guy running a dual-CPU setup with 6-core Xeons still got 7.8. Someone else claimed they got a 7.9 with a 6-core Intel at 5.6GHz. WTF, Windows.
