I check my PC hardware’s speed with one Windows command. Here’s how

The article discusses how to check the Windows Experience Index (WEI) score, a tool introduced in Windows Vista that provides a numerical assessment of a computer's hardware and software performance on a scale of 1 to 10. While the direct display feature for the WEI was removed in Windows 8.1, the tool still exists in Windows 11. By running the "winsat formal" command in the Windows 11 command prompt, users can generate a report that includes their system's WEI scores, which can help them determine if they need to upgrade any components like the CPU or storage drive. The article also mentions that scores closer to 10 indicate a faster and more responsive PC, and that it's difficult to achieve a perfect 10/10 score.
