new HD x264 video encoding benchmark

[graysky]

Techarp is hosting a new HD x264 benchmark. Have a look and run it on your system to help populate the data table.

Basically, you run the test encode of an HD sample (1280x720) and it will report back frames-per-second values for your machine @ it's clock/overclock level. You can run it at your stock settings and at your overclock settings to see how your machine compares to others in the database.

My goal is to have a representative set of data for many different chips and chipsets. Please just report your results here in this thread. I will keep the data at that url to keep things simple.

Thanks all and enjoy!

The following image will be updated automatically as new data comes in. It doesn't display any results, but it does show the number of data points collected so far and how they break down by CPU type:

3 days later no takers?

I'll do it... will post results in a bit...

Sorry for the late reply... Not sure if you are interested in dated systems but here are my results

@SiM - yeah man, older systems are cool to see. I was actually hoping someone with a pentium classic or ppro would do it. I used my old OLD p2-450 as you can see in the table.

@RoBe - got it, thanks!

[Professor Frink]

I will have a crack later on for you.

<---- The Rest in My System

The CPU is on speedstep so its 3ghz instead of 2.

If I'm missing anything else let me know.

[graysky]

@moogle - thanks for the data, just lemme know what o/s you're running and if it's 32 or 64 bit.

[SiM]

Will it help if I do this on my laptop too?

[graysky]

@SiM - only if you want to We have several other laptops in the mix.

i only have my MacBook with me atm but will do it when i get my pc back from uni in a few days

[moogle]

@moogle - thanks for the data, just lemme know what o/s you're running and if it's 32 or 64 bit.

Sure, its Windows XP SP2 and it's 32-bit of course

[directhex]

back to windows-only? tut tut

This is the results for my MacBook Pro running Windows Vista Ultimate (32bit) using bootcamp.
