WORKLOAD TESTS
[tabgroup] [tab title=”Video Conversion”]We use a 150MB 1080p MP4 video and convert it to standard iOS format using Xilisoft Video Converter for pure processor conversion and MediaEspresso for CUDA and QuickSync acceleration.
[singlepic id=14125 w=550 h=600 float=center] [/tab] [tab title=”Audio Encoding”]We convert a 73-minute album (D-Coy – Black Katipunero) into MP3 LAME 160Kbps CBR with dbPowerAmp Batch converter and note the time it takes to rip the disc.
[singlepic id=14126 w=550 h=600 float=center] [/tab] [tab title=”Compression”]We use WinRAR 4.0 on default settings to compress 3340 files of varying types including MP3s, various images and documents for a total of 2.40GB of data.
We resize 3,030 varying images of different formatsand sizes (a total of 883MB) to our standard 1200×900 resolution and note the time it takes to finish up the batch job.
[singlepic id=14123 w=550 h=600 float=center] [/tab] [/tabgroup]At a glance: Biostar surprisingly impresses in this section topping out nearly all our tests. Curiously though the file compression tests yielded some very weird figures but after testing a few more times, the results were consistent. Image resizing though took a hit but still came up strong.

Biostar may not have the looks of a prom queen but she can definitely be effortlessly fun if given the chance and shines in other ways that you don’t normally consider.
