Sapphire Pure Fusion Mini 350 Review (featuring ThermalTake Element Q)

HQV Benchmark 2.0 is an updated version of the original tool and it consists of various video clips and test patterns which are designed to evaluate motion correction, de-interlacing, decoding, noise reduction, detail enhancement and film cadence detection.

There are two versions of the program, standard definition on DVD and high definition on BluRay. As our audience will be concentrating on HD content, so will we.

This has a total of 39 video tests which is increased from 23 in the original and the scoring is also up from a total of 130 to 210. As hardware and software gets more complicated, the software has been tuned to make sure we can thoroughly maximise our analysis.

This Sapphire Fusion system delivers high quality video that’s a measurable 60% better than the scores we got with Intel’s HD video engine when we tested it, back in June last year.
