If you have a solid state drive it does. A standard hard drive cannot access data as fast as a solid state.

It also doesn't make sense that a 6850 would score 7.7 out of 7.9 when there's quite a few cards that outperform it.

Because its Microsoft, and Microsoft wants you to buy more ****. Even though a 10 year old machine with a 64mb video card can run Windows Aero perfectly fine.
