Matrox CompressHD Test Drive
By Jan Ozer
 A funny thing happened on the way to this installment of Affordable HD. Psyched by the arrival of the outstanding liquid-cooled HP Z800, I has scheduled a review of Matrox's hot, new H.264 co-processor board, CompressHD, figuring if the card could outperform HP's 3.2GHz dual-processor, quad-core Intel Nehalem-based system, it was really something.
