I don't really get what you're asking. You have a 4.5 score because that's the value given by Microsoft to whatever your score was on their benchmark test. If you're asking because you think that's low, then I'd say that's about right as the 8670m isn't that good.

Yes i m asking because i think its low but I am not talking about gaming graphics score but the desktop graphic performance score.Previously i had a dell inspiron with same configurations but it had a desktop graphic performance score of 5.9.The question is why 2 laptops with same configuration have different scores?

are you comparing a laptop to a desktop, because if you are then the desktop is obviously going to have more performance

Windows 8 uses a different scale to windows 7. The windows 8 scale goes higher, meaning if you had the exact same system, your score on windows 8 would be lower than it would on windows 7. Nothing is wrong, that's just the way they do it now.

yeah benji i know that windows 8 uses a different scale than windows 7.I read that the scores differ by factor of 0.1 to 0.6 in windows 7 and windows 8 but here the difference is 1.4,that's why i m asking

I have ASUS K55VD-SX378H. My system score is 4.4 because of Graphics. My graphics score is 4.4. I don´t know why, because I have nVidia GeForce 660M 2 GB. Why have I so small score?

Processor - Intel Pentium 2.40 Ghz
Ram - 4 GB DDR3
HDD - 500 GB
WIN 8 64 bit
