On the side, load power consumption was 25W with a 7200RPM HDD and 120mm fan.
Finally, if you didn't notice... The last test locked up at 99%, had to re-run it.

That is epic DDYFair play to it for even finishing the run!
Would be interesting to work out what the best 'performance per watt' is from these charts... as Im guessing the higher end systems, whilst notching up fast times, could 2-3x more power than a system in the mid range...
*edit* - can we get the OP table updated with the most recent scores?

Decided to re-run the encodes on my laptops, as I upgraded the windows one from a TK-55 (1.8\256kb) to a TL-60 (2.0\512kb) as I got given a coffee damaged laptop and found that the cpu was fine, I also tried it again on my macbook, as 10.7 apparently increases the performance compared to 10.6, there is an increase, nothing to shout about really and almost certainly due to lower OS overheads, but it interesting to see the difference a newer version of the os makes on the exact same hardware.
I have put the previous results in brackets after the new scores so you can see the improvement.

BBB- 5.014 fps (4.2 fps = 0.814 fps difference)
Tron- 5.252 fps (4.47 fps = 0.782 fps difference)
Splice- 3.69 fps (3.091 fps = 0.599 fps difference)

My E5300 hung on boot this afternoon so I'm back at stock for now. Once I've retweaked and got it properly stable at 3.5GHz I'll do runs at stock and OC, as we've not got an E5x00 Pentium on the charts yet, and certainly not one at well over 3GHz. Let's see if I can give that E8400 a run for its money
It looks like I have a load of updates to do!!
OK, stock run done for Tron and Splice, BBB will have to wait until free overnight bandwidth is available
Intel Pentium E5300 @ 2.6GHz (not overclocked), 2 cores, 2 threads
4GB DDR2-800 CL5
Windows 7 Pro 64bit
Tron: 9.33fps
Splice: 6.51fps
EDIT:
And overclocked results just in; system identical to above but with CPU running overclocked at 3.46GHz:
Tron: 12.03fps
Splice: 8.39fps
Wooo! I beat the E8400

Tried running the encodes again on my Q6600 using my new ssd, had the program folder and the input\output of handbrake on it, gave up after 1 encode as the results were only 0.02fps higher, and that is well within standard deviation, tried it again with the input file on another drive and the output on the ssd and again no measurable improvements, so at least on my system it isn't being hobbled by the storage system.

Unless you're getting ~100MB/s encoding throughput (you won't), IO speed won't be a limiting factor. I.e. if the encode of Splice takes about 10 seconds, then IO speed might play a part.
I knew that if there were any gains they would be small, but considering the boost in general usability that the ssd made to my windows install, I would have like to have seen an improvement, even though I knew that there wouldn't really be any lol
Besides after doing my laptops again I was in the mood for it

You might want to do a sanity check on that - you're nearing overclocked i7 3960X performance there.
Did you let it run and read that from the logs or is that the estimated speed after you pressed start? The latter cannot be used.
That was from the log but I will investigate further...
Yeah, I was being stupid and hadn't amended the output from a default profile I had created to batch encode a TV series - have amended the original post
Intel Core 2 Duo T9600 @ 2.8GHz (1066MHz FSB, 6MB cache) / 8GB DDR2-800MHz / 160GB 7200RPM
