Question handbrake - arc vs nvidia vs amd budget cards

Anyone aware of a comparison chart for handbrake that shows frames per second compared for Intel Arc, Radeon & Geforce budget graphics cards? I would like to look over a comparison chart like this, but haven't been able to come across one anywhere.

If you're aware of a comparison chart like this, I would really appreciate someone posting it, or providing a link. Thanks!

Nope, but I'll guess you also would have to look at the quality of the image produced.

I don't use a GPU with my encodes just rely on CPU. What CPU are you using?

two PC's, one with a Ryzen 5600g, and the other with Ryzen 5500gt. Processor - wise, they are within 2% of each other - I just got whatever was cheapest at the time, about 80 bucks. GPU - wise, they are within 3% of each other.
 
Tomshardware did a comparison last year using ffmpeg, and I think they usually do test it in regular GPU reviews.

Video Encoding Tested: AMD GPUs Still Lag Behind Nvidia, Intel (Updated)

AVC, HEVC, and AV1 encoding put to the test

Of course, you'll also need to look at WMAF quality scores per bitrate. And Intel tends to excel at that.

What fps do you get? I squeeze out about 30 fps from my E5-2697 v2 with my custom settings.
 
Yeah, if you are doing any amount of encoding Intel or Nvidia will make this so much faster.

On the Intel front, its about cheaper to get a Intel CPU than shell out for a discrete GPU.

I just scored an 12600K for $120 from @IEC that will be pressed into duty for this. Replacing a i5 6500 setup that keeps losing its mind. I think its time I put that guy out to pasture and the 12600K will have the chops for CPU and GPU assisted everything all in one package.

I'm using AMD VCE h.265 for some old 480p TV, a live action show I loved as a kid from the late 70's & early 80's. I got 1172 frames per second, and encoded an hour and a half show in just a minute and 56 seconds. Resulting file looked and sounded just fine to me, and was 473 megabytes.

I do 7500 kps so 90 minutes usually ends up at 5-8Gb's.
 
There was a YouTube channel that did quality and performance testing of this, but unfortunately I don't recall what channel it was. I think I found them on a website/blog, and their focus was more streamers (think might've even been specifically game streaming). They had a series of this testing and I believe tested multiple programs (streaming software but I think they also tested Handbrake) as support for encoders was added.
 
I think re-encoding video for direct personal consumption is total blasphemy, but this would be interesting to know which vendor is faster. Would be very interesting to know if AMD discrete GPUs are faster for encoding than just the APU.

I only ever have to encode things anymore when a service has file size limits anymore, damn discord. So if I need to squeeze down a really long clip I just send it down to my NAS, remote in, and do it there while usually forgetting about it lol.

Bluray+ levels of quality (in terms of bitrate and on disk size) for a 480p TV show seems a bit excessing though! 🙂

I have plenty of hard drive space so why not. I'm in the process of upgrading all my old encodes that I did on my old Phenom system to 7500 kps.
