Can't seem to get anyone to answer on discord and tomshardware's stupid captcha codes won't let me log in. So I'm asking here.
Using handbrake, I just tested the encoding speed between two systems; ryzen 5 5600 and an i7-7700k.
According to cpu benchmarks, the ryzen should be 20% faster than the intel. However, the encoding results beg to differ; greatly. Both systems have 32GB ram.
AMD: 1hr 10m 12s
Intel: 31m 19s
Same encoding settings for a 90min 480p movie using H.265 . Any ideas on why the intel performed more than twice as fast?
Now I don't know if handbrake is using the gpu to do the encoding or not, can't seem to find a straight answer on that either. But it could make sense since the amd system has an nvidia 1060 while my intel is using a 3060.
