DivX 5.2.1 with AutoGK

Armed with the latest version of DivX (5.2.1) and the AutoGK front end for Gordian Knot, we took all of the processors to task at encoding a chapter out of Pirates of the Caribbean. We set AutoGK to give us 75% quality of the original DVD rip and did not encode audio.

XviD 5 with AutoGK

Another very popular codec is the XviD codec, and thus we measured encoding performance using it instead of DivX for this next test. The rest of the variables remained the same as the DivX test.

Windows Media Encoder 9

To finish up our look at Video Encoding performance we've got two tests both involving Windows Media Encoder 9. The first test is WorldBench 5's WMV9 encoding test.

Microsoft Windows Media Encoder 9.0

Next we have our own home-brewed HD encoding test:

    Same old same old...

    It's the same old thing man...Intel releases their "new" chip clocked at "whatever speed" with "whatever features" and AMD continues to dominate and stay on top. I don't even have to say anything to back this up...the benchmarks say all.......go look!

    Go buy a 90nm S939 A64 and be happy you've just bought the best chip on the market.

    ahh the last fastest pentium 4 these could run at 4 or MAYBE close to 4.5 5ghz would require nitrogen cooling
