    hey guys and girls, im new to these forums so i'd just like to say its great to be here :)

    just a quick question about my windows experience index score for my RAM
    ive recently upgraded my system's memory from 4gb ddr3 to 8gb ddr3 (as well as upgraded to 64-bit windows) back when i had 4gb it had a reasonable score (around 5.1 give or take) but now i have 8gb it's dropped to 3.0, does that sound right? cheers guys :)

    What is the memory configuration? DDR needs to match so in your case the optimal configuration would be 4 two megs sticks or 2 four meg sticks (if those exist). I am not familiar with that Windows Experience score and like a lot of Microsoft built in utilities not sure it means too much.
