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 fantastic set of results for the budget AMD card, scoring 196 points out of 210. The hardware is delivering comparable image quality to the high end boards.
interesting little card, looks almost like a plastic toy, but yet the cooler seems very good.
Ideal little board for a small form factor machine hooked into a plasma.
I like this series of cards, but the only issue I have with it, is AMD’s forced pricing levels. they need to drop them to 60 before I think they are really worth the cost
I was doing a little research, arent these guys associated with powercolor?
@ frankie, same parent company TUL. yes. Not sure why they need two sections of the company to produce graphics cards?
Cheap poor excuse for a card, mine broke before i even used it as the cooler fails to keep the GPU cool. Wouldn’t touch with a barge pole and the Customer support is non existent
