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.
Spectacular! I love that system, great case too.
Got to love the 3770k, I want to upgrade my 3570k as I do video editing. Just need to get the funds.
Good system from MESH, didn’t know they were still going. I remember buying a system from them in 1998
Awesome review.
(Just remember to put in other graphic cards in your graphs in the next review, to have something to compare against. Or Titan without OC CPU as baseline to compare against :))
