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.
MKV playback demands more of the APUs power than playing a Blu-Ray movie. That said, the Sapphire A75 motherboard in conjunction with the A8-3850 APU managed to handle it without issue.
