Here we see the Windows 7 Experience Index score of 3.1. The lowest value is the desktop graphics which is deemed by the operating system as the bottle neck of the system. We found it interesting that the Gaming graphics test scored so much more than the desktop graphics test by scoring a 4.6. We are used to these values being closer to the same, if not identical. CPU-Z and GPU-Z screen shots are below.
For our testing, we put the MSI Wind U230 Netbook up against the following systems:
- ASUS Eee PC 1201N - Pricing
- ASUS Eee PC 1005PE Seashell - Pricing
- ASUS Eee PC 1005HA Seashell - Pricing
- ASUS Eee PC 1000HE - Pricing
- ASUS N10Jc-A1
- MSI X340 - Pricing
- ASUS UL50Vf Optimus Notebook - Pricing
