Welcome to my 2023 Triple Comparison! With 2 MIDIs that I personally find very epic and emotional, and also another one with my MIDI. Here it is, after being in Progress for almost 4 Months. The best-edited 3 Comparisons I have yet made! And the point where I definetly realized I don't have the mentality to host 2x 100 Ways and another 25 Way Comparison at the same time.
Anyways, I hope u enjoyyyy!!! ^w^
Fun fact: More than a total of 3,887,843,850 Notes are played in this video!!! That's more than Quazar of Sanxion 3.5 Billion or Bad Apple Decimation Mode 2.1 Billion LMAO
Check out my DDV1 121-Way Comparison too! : • Black MIDI - DDV1 Papr...

0:00 - CHAPTER #1: Walls of LIFE | 100 Way
7:46 - CHAPTER #2: R.E.G.R.E.T.E.D | 100 Way
18:02 - CHAPTER #3: Quadrianexium | 25 Way
This comparison compares, how different CPUs do on playing these MIDIs. Note, that this does not compare overall CPU Performance. Piano From Above depends on Single Core performance and Cache Size.

⎼⎼⎼⎼⎼⎼⎼⎼⎼| Reflection |⎼⎼⎼⎼⎼⎼⎼⎼⎼
Hosting 2x 100 Ways and another 25 Way Comparison at the same time is definetly too much for me. I began feeling very damn overwhelmed near the end, and I thought about cancelling one of the Comparisons, but decided not to because I didn't want to have everyone's time wasted. This definetly was difficult to get through. Especially because of my messed up mental health.
Additionally, Vegas Pro is a hell of unstability and glitchyness to work with in 4K60 resolution. I definetly need to switch to another editing software.
I also spent alot of effort to make each of the Comparison Audios sound as good as possible, probably spent a few hours on each. I volume-balanced many of the audios in FL Studio, for each part, and edited or left out audios that sound glitchy.

⎼⎼⎼⎼⎼⎼⎼⎼⎼| Mistakes and Corrections |⎼⎼⎼⎼⎼⎼⎼⎼⎼
1. In Ch.1 and Ch.2's Ranklist, HiimAndrew's CPU is mistakenly written as "i5-10300H". Correction: "i5-10500H"
2. In Ch.2's Ranklist, Anon64's Release Time is mistakenly counted as 3:20.2. Correction: 2:30.2
3. In Ch.3's Ranklist, my i7-11800H is mistakenly listed twice. The upper i7-11800H bar is actually supposed to be the i7-11700's Time.
4. OKBranflakes' AMD EPYC run is accidentally still listed in the Ranklist, despite being removed from the Video.
5. The AMD E-450 Run in Ch.1 is done on battery (making performance worse), but I forgot to note that in the Video.
