NVIDIA PureVideo was updated just a week ago with hardware accelerated decoding of H.264 video, a support ATI has had for a long time with its X1K familjy. The first comparisons between the two using H.264 decoding has appeared at French hardware site PCimpact.com and the results is really interesting since NVIDIA actually seem to have an advantage with the load on the processor. Both manufacturers eases the load on the processor considerably, but NVIDIA seems to have an advantage in some tests. If this is what we can expect from NVIDIA it has done a great job with its new decoder and driver, but we hope to see more PureVideo vs. AVIVO tests soon.
