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.
About time, long overdue.
Looks like it was worth it . ill wait until Nov before diving in for my second system im buidling right now. Prices might be lower too !
Just skimmed it as im in work, but looks like a winner. good pricing. AMD prices will drop again soon 🙂
They make great coolers , even better than ASUS imo. and I dont often say that as ASUS are pure pawnage in the mobo space.
They have needed this card for such a long time now. but I fear AMD might already be in the wings waiting with their 8 series cards. january I reckon
