Notes

For video encoding tests, we encode a 165MB 720p video to a smaller sub-5MB file ready for streaming on the web. In this test both Core 2 processors manage to pull ahead of AMD’s Athlon 64 FX-62, with the Core 2 Extreme in particular finishing this test over 10 seconds faster than the FX-62. The Core 2 CPUs also pull ahead in DivX conversion and MP3 testing.
