HD playback comparison on two UMPCs

Just to give you an idea in the performance difference between the new Samsung Q1 Ultra Premium and the older Q1P, I've got a comparison of H.264 playback. A 720p HD movie trailer in Quicktime, to be specific. At a 5.8 Mbps bitrate, this pushes a little beyond the limits of what should be expected from a UMPC, but I think it's important to see how these devices handle it.

The Eee pc is an lot better. They have am simple GMA booster for the Eee pc that boost the speed from 200mhz to 400mhz.. Also you can install cccp codex and have codeavc h and have the codeavc decode it.

ok, never mind, didn't watch the entire video before i commented. Sorry

[steven713235]

this isn't an accurate test, you had two totally different OS's running.

Vista takes up quite a bit more CPU power than XP does, run it again... this time with the same OS and i'll believe it
