| HandBrake | |
| Developer: | HandBrake community |
| Type of test: | Popular application with open source code to convert videos. |
| Comment: |
Puts load on the CPU and other components through conversion of video files to other formats. |
| The performance test: | iPhone 4 preset: 263 MB MP4-fil filmed with Galaxy S II in 17 Mb/s |
Handbrake isn't the best optimized application when it comes to multiple threads, which allows Ivy Bridge with it's architectural improvements to place itself above even the Core i7-980X.
| x264 Benchmark 4.0 | |
| Developer: | Tech ARP |
| Type of test: | Popular synthetic test suite |
| Comment: | Puts load on the CPU and other components through conversion of a video file to x264. |
| The performance test: | Built-in performance test |
In pass 1 of x264 we once again see a good ranking for the Core i7-3770K, which can almost touch the six core processors territory.
But Core i7-3770K drops significantly in the heavier pass 2 test and lets the old six-core warrior, the Core i7-980X, to run past itself. The result is still the best within the quad-core processor territory though.
