    Misleading headline. This improvement was only the best video encoding result. Most relevant improvements were in the 7-17% range. Still an improvement, but not so spectacular.

      Misleading is the way of journalism these days. It’s all about clickbait and partial facts.

        Tomshardware is a blog, not journalism. It seems to be a generally credible blog (passes the CRAAP test), but it’s still just a blog.

        That said, sadly, I have to agree about the general state of almost all US-based “journalism” these days. About 90% of headlines today would have gotten the editor fired on the spot in my newsroom. That was a point of strong disagreement between me and the station manager, and It’s one of the major reasons that I left the field.
