You could consider upgrading if you are a gamer, otherwise it is not a big deal. Bugalugs 4.7 is not surprising for his processor, although you could try running the test with all applications closed including sidebar. Both of these ratings sound right for you specs

Processor - 4.7 RAM - 5.9 Graphics - 5.9 Gaming Graphics - 5.9 Primay Hard disk - 5.7 So why is my CPU so slow? The new dual core E6600 should be hitting 5.4 according to forums/sites/pundits and the like I've been into BIOS and Vista settings, I've made sure that no CPU throttling is occuring. My only other though is that i'm running the 64bit version. Does anyone know if the 64bit version puts a different requirement on the CPU/Pocessor test ? Some example stats My Rig E6600 4 MB L2 2.40 GHz 1066 MHz - WEI RATING 4.7 Vista Ultimate - 64 bit 85.94229 48.20735 229.75929 394.35495 9.83065 Friends Rig Dell XPS Laptop T7400 4 MB L2 2.16 GHz 667 MHz - WEI RATING 5.4 Vista Home Premium - 32 bit - 110.64363 56.51694 312.99292 510.65292 6.92793 Any thoughts on this would be great BugAlugs My PC is quite nice but a Windows Experience Index of ONLY 4.7 !
