Handbrake is a fantastic free program which we wanted to include to confirm findings with Media Espresso, earlier in the review. HandBrake is an open-source, GPL-licensed, multiplatform, multithreaded video transcoder, available for MacOS X, Linux and Windows.
We used the latest V 0.9.5 for testing today across all platforms. We encoded an DVD.MPG file.
A demanding test which works best when you can throw more than 4 cores at all. Still the final results aren't bad at all.
I love this case and nice system from OCUK too. id opt for a cheaper GFX though.
Nah. not for me. the case is really easy to break, my mate broke his by liftning it!
great idea and looks fab, im interested, but would aim a little lower up the pecking order on GPU side of it.
Warren, what do you mean he broke it by lifting it? did something snap?
@ Zardon – he built a system into the prodigy with a large CPU cooler, lifted it with the front handle a few days later and the handle snapped cleanly in the middle.
He was gutted. id love to know if this happens on a regular basis with ‘heavy’ system builds inside this case.
Detailed review, thanks.
I like the build myself. I can deal with noise, I normally game with headphones on anyway. idle/general noise results look good.
Id rather b uild a system myself, its a lot of the fun!”
DEFINITELY NEEDS CABLE MANAGEMENT!
