Swynol 375 Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Hi all, wondering if using a quadro card over a ati 6570 and then using the nvenc for trans coding would i notice a difference and how reliable is it? currently i have a i3 3450 and a ati 6570 sometimes when i have 2-3 transcodes going it hits 100% cpu usage and one of the streams starts to struggle.

Guest plexman Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 The NVENC engine is independent from the GPU, so it doen's matter what GPU you have because for transcoding it will use the NVENC engine. Check this, read carefully: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nvidia_NVENC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swynol 375 Posted September 27, 2016 Author Share Posted September 27, 2016 but it still has to be a supported GPU? which looks like the k620 is. so do you think it will lower my cpu usage enough to be of any use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PenkethBoy 2063 Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Have a read of this thread - its long but shows what people have tried - more interesting bits towards the end of the thread https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/10723-gpu-transcoding-intel-quicksync-and-nvidia-nvenc/ 3-5% usage of the gpu is about par per transcode - looks like it will give you a 50% increase over all your quad can do more than 2 threads at once which the normal GPU are limited to 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
