    I received and installed my ssd today! Much faster than before but still feels a bit slow. Looking at my performance information I see that I have a 4.9 score for processor, ram is 6.2 graphics is 6.7 and gaming graphics is 6.7 and harddrive is 7.3. is the processor a bad choice? Oh I'm using an intel core 2 duo CPU E8600 @3.33GHz

    The Core2 was king of it's generation, but it's a good 2-3 generations behind now.

    Also the Windows Experience Index is a very poor choice to use for benchmarking your hardware.

    It's 4 generations behind, 5 if you want to count Haswell.

    CPU and the fact you probably don't have SATAIII as other have mentioned. Did you do a clean install?

    Unless you are using a budget SSD or did not do a clean install, it should have. I admit the way it decides if it's a SSD or not is a bit retarded, basically you have to get a high enough score on the initial WEI test. Not sure about the threshold though, mine is 7.9 anyway.

    Agree, but it provides a basic test if everything is working as it should. An SSD with a score below 7.9 is usually either a budget one or is being limited by something. Note that 7.9 is the max score in win7, I don't know about win8
