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.
damn, thats a mega card, more than my whole system cost however!
White pcb is really awesome, never seen that done before. wozzers, can never buy this b aby, off to try and win it now !
Yeah that is serious. Im not easy impressed but KFA2 are right up there now with the best of them after seeing this.
Very sexy, looks like the knd of card you can only dream about
Small fortune but very sexy. Nv for the win
Not available online sadly. Any ideas when they will have stock?
damn the more I re-read this, the more I want it 🙁 sucks to be a student.
The price is ridiculous for most people, but a good point is made in the conclusion. People who buy these kind of cards really dont care. ive seen reviews dock two points for a price over £500 when really the people who buy these and read the reviews tend to focus on overclocking, temps and how easy it would be to watercool 🙂
holy bank balance batman!
No SLI results? :p come on, lets see SLI across 4 screens next 🙂
Im not so sure on the white to be honest. its quite sore on the eyes. Id like it in pink. any takers?
Whats the significance of the ‘hall of fame’ stamp on the back of the PCB? anyone know
Great pics by the way, I can see every transistor on the board. really nice idea.
its a awesome gpu no doubt……i called it a beast
That looks like a Awesome card 3 fans OMG.
this is the highest factory oced gtx 680,overvoltage it with afterburner 2.2.3 ,i think it will reach 1.45 ghz +core clock,maybe better buy than the msi lightning 680
