I think my 2600 @ 4.3 did 245ish FPS.... it's encoding bluray rips shrinking them down plenty fast for me so I see no need to upgrade until at least Haswell-E and even that's questionable.

I updated my results to the requisite 0.9.9.1 version, but this thread is such a mess of nightly scores, maybe we should start over with a "resubmission" thread.

To perform this test, I did a fresh reboot of my system, disabled CoreTemp, Serviio, and my cloud backup software.

Incidentally, using version 0.9.8.4861 of Handbrake, I get 121.25475 fps @3.4 GHz and 133.668091 fps @3.8 GHz running the same test. Looks like the newer version of Handbrake is not kind to my old technology.

I have a really old system (built in November of 2003) that's been sitting in a closet for a while. I had to boot it up recently to find an old file, so I thought I'd check to see what it would do with HandBrake just for S&Gs.

(sic)Klown12 you can see the improvement of your 4930k over my 3930k since both are clocked at 4.4Ghz.

I know this thread has all but died because of the mixed Handbrake releases used, but I've found the results interesting, and I wanted to test a couple of old/newly resurrected systems I have. Plus, it's a good repository for these results.

The Q8200 @ 2.8 GHz performs pretty much like an i3-2100 with HT. Not too bad for an old chip with not a lot of cache.

I agree as well, but I think we should probably wait for an updated official release version. We've seen how much better the newer processors run clock for clock on the nightly builds. Feels odd to "penalize" the newer stuff by using an outdated version of the program.

Yeah, it's not a fast cpu by any means, but hey, this box only uses 25 watts during encoding, equipped with desktop parts. I haven't measured it, but CPU performance per watt should be decent.

It is decent perf per watt compared with fellow AMD watt burners, but not really competitive with Intel stuff. Haswell big quads are using 4-5 times more system power but encoding 6-7 times faster. So perf per watt is up to 50% higher on Intel stuff.
