The Matroska Media container is a very popular, open standard Multimedia container which is usually found as .MKV files. It is a very popular format in enthusiast circles and can be played directly in VLC or Windows Media Player with suitable codecs installed.
We played our 1080P MKV movie using the latest version of VLC Media Player and measured the CPU usage with the Performance Monitor built into Windows.
The CPU usage is a little on the high side for MKV playback but there are plenty of clock cycles left for other applications.
£1500 is very expensive for that really.
Yeah, not a great selection of components. especially the memory. thats not really forgiveable in 2013.
£1,500? I dont think so, I could build a much better system for that price.
Nothing I really like about that build, I normally like the pcspecialist builds you feature on this page, and the mesh one was even nice, but this ? nah. pass.
I am glad that didnt get an award, because its pants. The whole build looks like its sagging inside and the component selection is dire. unnamed memory? entry level PSU and poor cooling, for £1,500? serious? id have gave it 5 out of 10. not 7, but as I said, no award, so im letting you guys off with it.
TBH i would rather have a gaming laptop than a gaming pc these days.oo00 that reminds me i’ve just bought a samsung seris 7 gaming laptop.laptops for the win in my book 🙂
wow, thats a system I wouldnt have myself. a last gen SSD, crap memory and an entry level cooler master PSU? temps are terrible too.
Thats embarassing. thumbs down from me.
