The 4800+ takes about 2 hours 25 minutes in single CPU mode. Naturally, doing other work still flies along while crunching.
Turning the multithread switch on in TMPGEnc, I crunched a movie in 1 hour 18 minutes, and still had enough horse power to check email, surf, and other light duty tasks.

AWESOME! Dude, that's why I can't wait to either build a system around a C2D or wait for a Kentsfield Quadro. It'll run circles around my current P4 3.0Ghz Northwood system. I do a bit of video editing and DVD authoring/encoding. I can't wait to see the difference it makes in saving me time and letting me continue doing other things while I burn my home videos to DVD.
