Default Windows Experience Index

So i just installed windows 7 just a few days ago. i have no hard ware changes except a new storage drive. and i was just wondering why my system rating went down from 5.9 in my vista partition to 5.4 in my Se7en partition. any ideas?

Windows 7 includes an updated Experience Index, with a higher rating system.

5.9 is no longer the maximum rating, which overall tends to cause other ratings to differ from the ratings they were on Vista.

If you look at everything, you will most likely have hardware that is rated in the 6.0s instead of maxing out at 5.9.

Also, I would edit your signature, as profanity is against the TOS.

Youre fine even if you typed it. Its against the TOS if you try and get around the censoring like typing AS5 (to all the mods: arctic silver 5 )

Meh experience index is nothing to go by, I got a 5.9, my lowest was my primary hard disk rating. my highest was a 7.5 on my ram.

looks to me like anyone with anything below a raptor, SSD, or a raid 0 is going to get a 5.9 provided their rig is decent.
