AutoGK is a program for recompressing all kinds of video formats with XviD and DivX codec's. Multi-threading is supported, and for the testing of the two motherboards we used an episode from Pure Pwnage, with size of roughly 300MB, while setting the program on attempting to squeeze it in 50MB DivX or XviD file.
MSI P45 Platinum is again a step behind ASUS P5K-E WiFi, in both tests.
Paint.NET x64 3.36 - PDNBench
Paint.NET is one of the best free image editors. The program is far from attempting to replace Adobe Photoshop, but for the everyday optimization and small changes of your images its doing just fine. Even more - it is an Open Source program, and that way a myriad of applications and plugins based on it or for it could be made. PDNBench is exactly that kind of plugin, performing a variety of different operations, commonly used when editing pictures - scaling, zooming, decreasing, cutting, compressing and so on. The support of multi-threading makes it even more appealing for use in this review.
Yet again as had it so far, P45 is trailing behind with something like 2%.
