Many people who have media systems will be familiar with the Matroska (.mkv) file format which is often used for high definition video. In this test we will be using VLC Media Player to play a 1080P MKV file while recording CPU usage using Performance Monitor.
In this test, the performance of the APU and Intel i3-2105 was very close again but the AMD APU achieved a slightly better average score. This score improved a little more when the processor was overclocked.
