Intel is relying on CPU to send GPU to become the world's largest GPU manufacturer. 70% share is more than AMD and NVIDIA. However, Intel's nuclear display has always been used by people. It is no use for Intel to cut. Drop out the nuclear display.
Well now, those who often need to use Adobe Premiere to edit video are blessed. The latter has already supported Intel's QuickSync encoding acceleration function. After the actual display is turned on, the video processor is faster than AMD's 8-core, 16-core processors. To be faster.
Quicksync is a new functional unit that Intel added to the SNB processor in 2011. This unit is part of the core display. It supports video transcoding and encoding acceleration. However, this feature requires software support. Intel has not seen strong efforts for several years. Promotion, so many people can not think of it.
Today, 7 years later, Adobe Priemiere Pro CC software has finally joined QuickSync support. The speed of video editing has greatly improved.
The German Golem website used the Core i7-8700K, Ryzen 7 2700X, Ryzen Threadripper 1950X, GTX 1080 Ti, and 16GB DDDR4 memory for comparison tests. The results are as follows:
Youtube 4K video test
Youtube 1080p video test
In both resolutions of video editing, Core i-8700K performance after the QuickSync is turned on has significantly improved, 4K video significantly reduced the time from 467 seconds to 308 seconds, to achieve the reversal of the 1950X processor, and in The same is true for 1080p resolution, although the advantage is not great.
This function is not very good? It is really useful for the players who use it, but it is not easy to use this function, Golem also mentioned several restrictions.
The first is the hardware platform. Although QuickSync is a long time, Adobe Priemiere Pro CC supports Skylake, Kaby Lake and Coffee Lake processors, which are 6th, 7th, and 8th generation Core.
Second, Video acceleration only supports H.264 encoding on the Windows 10 platform and H.264 and HEVC on the Mac OS.
There is QuickSync can only be used in VBR1 encoding export. Using VBR2 or CBR export can only use CUDA, OpenCL and other types of acceleration.
Another point, they mentioned that this feature is enabled on ASUS motherboards, but also that the following iGPU multi-monitor support features are enabled in the BIOS, and that the driver can be installed to properly start hardware acceleration.
