Our good friends at Cyberlink kindly supplied the software for our BluRay and conversion tests.
Cyberlink PowerDVD 10 is one of the finest solutions for the BluRay experience on Windows and we found this software to work perfectly with this chipset. We tested with the new Extended Bluray Disc of Avatar, one of our favourite sci-fi films in recent years.
An average of 17 percent is an excellent result, highlighting that the dual core i5 processor is a good partner for low cost HD media reproduction.
We recorded CPU activity across a specific duration of movie playback. The CPU load time varies between 11 percent and 25 percent indicating that the processor has plenty of time free for other tasks.
Seems like a very decent card for the money. Not my cup of tea, but for media duties, very nice indeed.
If they clock this to 625mhz it will not relate to these scores unfortunateyl, thats a significant core clock drop.
Not a very exciting product, but the fact you can game on more than one screen, even if the IQ would be rubbish is a very cool idea. Great idea for a second system but I cant see this being used as a gaming card, more for media.
In that area it does very well indeed.
Sales in this market are much larger than the high end but there is very little money to be made here by AMD or their partners, maybe $10 a card profit.
This is a nice update, but passive would be more appealing to me than a fan.
The HD6450 seems like a nice HTPC card, if not a tad expensive.
Also, it’s nice to see a tech review site that actually makes an effort to make sure that their graphs are clear to read, so people can actually quickly make sense of the data (the whole point in a graph). Keep up the good work.
