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.

The hardware scores 192 points out of a possible 210 which is excellent.
thats incredible. £400 is a lot of money, but its £80 less as said. seems like a good saving for another kit of memory or similar !
Thats a winner. but the GTX680 will be faster when you overclock it 🙂 not really fair as this asus card is overclocked.
Very tasty. Good oc too
They make great video cards. This is better than anything amd have out.
Nvidia back in the game! They need something out around the 300 quid mark now
very nice indeed. Their Direct CU cooler has always been very good. Only thing I would say is the bundle is dire looking.
bought one this morning, damn you 🙁
it seems you have a problem in your rig ,In unigine heaven bench, i ve got a 2924 score and 116,1 average fps with this card on a sabretooth p67 mobo with i5 2500k @ 4ghz with 8g of ram
all the bench settings were the same
you should get more then me with your rig , i think …..
ASUS GTX670-DC2T or ASUS GTX680 is faster in max overclocking?
are these cards stable in max overclock?
sorry i forgot to say my computer specifications
My computer components are : ASUS P8Z77-V Deluxe, Intel i7 3770K, Ram 32GB G.Skill DDR3 1600.
