Transcoding our 200MB 1080p clip into a format suitable for Apple's iPhone makes use of whatever CPU power is available - hence the 2.53GHz GT725 races clear of the bunch.

Similarly, MSI's GT725 barely breaks a sweat when playing back our 1080p clip. An average CPU load of under 20 per cent is more than comfortable. The CPU's got ample grunt, then, so how about that new mobile GPU?
