Michael Brown Explores the HQV Benchmark DVD

Introducing the latest weapon in our videocard benchmarking arsenal

When I measure a videocard's performance, I use a variety of games and games-oriented synthetic benchmarks to test a card's capacity for real-time 3D-rendering. But because I know Maximum PC readers are much more than avid game players, I've been looking for a benchmark that will enable me to objectively measure a videocard's video performance, too. The HQV Benchmark DVD delivers just what I need.
