The Windows Experience Index Score, which is available on Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8 lets you measure the capability of your computer’s hardware and software configuration and display the score (1 – 9). A higher score means your computer will perform better and faster when running resource-hungry applications and games.

Microsoft has removed the Windows Experience Index feature from Windows 8.1, but you can bring it back with a little application called ChrisPC Win Experience Index. It can help you find a PC that suits all your needs when you buy a new PC.
