HQV Benchmark 2.0 is an updated version of the original tool and it consists of various video clips and test patterns which are designed to evalute motion correction, de-interlacing, decoding, noise reduction, detail enhancement and film cadence detection.
There are two versions of the program, standard definition on DVD and high definition on Bluray. As our audience will be concentrating on HD content so will we.
This has a total of 39 video tests which is increased from 23 in the original and the scoring is also up from a total of 130 to 210. As hardware and software gets more complicated, the software has been tuned to make sure we can thoroughly maximise our analysis.

A score of 196 points is class leading right now, the ideal solution for high definition media playback on a big screen.
single slot for a 7850 is quite impressive. ill not want them myself, but its a good idea to get your name noticed IMO. media fanbois should love this.
They would work well in the latest silverstone small form factor chassis. im tempted to build a second system now, with a liquid cooling system.
Its HOTTER, LOUDER and more power hungry. Even if its single slot, its a pretty big fail if u ask me.
im confused, are foxconn actually behind these or is it a different company? the name surely must mean they are linked in.
@ Maxwell.
Its less power hungry, did you read the graph wrong? also single slot cards are always going to be hotter and louder. unless they can suddenly develop new fan technology that is half the size/depth which miraculously is quieter. hasn’t happened.
@ Davis
AFOX are an off-shoot of the Foxconn brand. Originally set up as a graphics division to Foxconn it soon split and became its own company.
