I prefer the Vista performance rating over running the newest 3DMark which will usually give me the feeling that I need to upgrade.
My CPU(5.2) also scores lower than my graphicscard(5.9) and I know my graphicscard is the actual achilles heel but then my RAM scores absolutely lowest at 4.5. Don't know why, everything runs fine but then 6.0 is the highest rating you can get, so it's not too bad anyway.
