The Experience Rating is derived from five subscores which are: Processor, Memory, Graphics, Gaming Graphics and Primary Hard Drive.

All five are benchmarked by Vista which assigns a score between 1.0 and 5.9 at the end. All five sub scores are then used to calculate the Windows Experience Rating. The weakest score is 1.0 while the highest score currently possible lies at 5.9.

Microsoft will add higher scores every 12-18 months to reflect changes in the hardware market. There won’t be a system that currently gets a score higher than 5.9 unless you tweak it with System Point.

It is possible to change the Windows Experience rating and all five sub scores with System Point which means that you should not rely on that score if someone sells you an used computer running Windows Vista. It’s great for fooling friends though.
