Uninstall Norton, since itself is a virus...
same here, went from 1600 to 1866. My WEI went up, though.

And you know that no other benchmark will ever be as critical and thorough as the WEI...
Apparently triple RAID-0 SSD and 5.2GHZ overclocked i7 is not quite good enough though... only got a 7.6
Do I win the award for the slowest scores?
Athlon 64 3700+ 4-Threaded Heavy
Athlon 64 3700+ 8-Threaded Light
OK so it does work in XPx64, but there are a few issues, one of them being that you can't see some of the scores, including the final result. In XPx64, the only way to get your final result is to click 'Save Scores' and then open the text file which holds your score.
The 4-threaded heavy bench took 953 seconds on the 3700+ - that's around 15 minutes or so! I had to run the bench with the side panel removed so that the CPU didn't get too hot. Even with the side panel removed, temps were hitting 70C (this thing idles at around 45-50C).
The 8-threaded bench didn't take so long, only around 3.5 minutes or so, but both tests pushed the CPU usage up to 100% on the single core which this Athlon has.

A fresh install with my Corsair Force 3 got a 7.9, but its at 7.7 right now. If it was 7.9, I'd have all 7.9s except 7.5 for my CPU.
But yeah, I know it doesn't matter at all.
My scores are 7.6, 7.9, 7.8, 7.8, 7.8 with the 2500K rig in my sig. My SSD was at 7.9 but then once I got the 5870 and installed the Catalyst Drivers it dropped to 7.8.
Don't know how I'll ever live with that...

Lol, I know. I wouldnt uninstall norton because it cost 80 bucks. And because its not my pc, I would never get norton
I'm not giving away the source code to anybody (especially publicly) until I've had permission from SmileMan.

Norton is bad antivirus, sometime it caught false virus. Better if remove then download free antivirus Avast! edition
Norton is not a virus but they have issued antivirus and other stuff.
Sorry but you have to asking SmileMan, the founder of benchmark.
Also we wouldn't know what would you doing with it if vistakid release code source.

Well, avast sucks as much as norton And he was joking when norton is a virus.

I dont like avast, but its just my opinion.Its clucnky, gets in your way, and as I am not the type to buy a AV program, it has popups saying get avast paid.Though, almost all AV software does this, so I use Microsoft security essentials, which doesnt have these problems.
I like Avast but I like MSE too.
Back on topic; that was a false positive which Norton detected. You can see a link to a Virus Total scan of the application on the first page in the thread. It comes out 100% clean.

i7 3930K there? Is it overclocked at all?
Sure is an I7 3930k
Not one bit overclocked. I don't know how to.
btw sorry for not mentioning you in the comment above.

No worries. If you've got decent cooling and a good board and case you should try overclocking 3930K - would be interesting to see what scores you'd get.
I know you're using 16GB of RAM, what's the make and model of the RAM?I'll add your scores to the new leaderboard when I get it up tomorrow or Friday most probably.
