This article compiles the best benchmark results we collected
of various CPU models using x264 HD Benchmark 4.0, a free CPU
benchmark developed by graysky, Dashken and Adrian Wong. This CPU
performance comparison guide currently covers 33 different CPU models
plus another 283 CPUs in the older comparison but this is just the
beginning. We will keep updating the results as new results come in,
so please contribute your results.
If you would like to participate in this endeavor, head over to the
x264 HD Benchmark 4.0 page and download a copy. After you obtain your
benchmark results, simply post them in the official forum thread of
x264 HD Benchmark 4.0. Please post your results even if your processor
is already listed in the comparison. This is because we will use your
results if they are better than the results currently listed in the
comparison.
