    Same here. 5.1 --> RAM
    But this doesn't mean anything.

    Are you using stock drivers?

    I have 5.3 on the ram, but that was due to FSB overclock. Now I get 5.1 i think.

    ! ive just run it again and im on 5.0 now. see told you it didnt mean anything.
    ive had 4gb ram installed from new but before the bios update vista could only see 2.530gb. now the bios has been updated i can see and use 3.065gb so even though i can see and use more ram the score has actually gone from 5.1 to 5.0

    Like he^ said. The WEI means nothing. Its the same with 3dmark scores. What you should look at is real game performance.

    Processor-----------5.4
    Memory--------------5.9
    Graphics------------5.9
    Gaming graphics-----5.8
    Primary hard disk---5.7


    Specs:
    P9500 (2.53GHz)
    4GB 1066MHz
    9800GTS
    320GB, 7200 RPM drive
    Vista 64bit Enterprise

    So except for the version of Vista, essentially the same notebook. Odd that my memory score is 5.9 then.

    Same specs as mine, but I'm using Vista Business x64, and I only get a 5.0 for my RAM. Also, I get a 5.9 for my Gaming Graphics. Just shows how messed up the WEI is :p
