Intel "F" processor encoding inquiry!

[modassir]

Hi I am a little bit confused because nobody is giving me an accurate answer!

Can I record on OBS with i3-10100F/i3-10105F? Is there any cpu encoder (like x264) on these processors? (Have GT 1030 so there is no NVENC)

Also will I get any display output if I use "F" processors without a GPU?

You will need to use CPU encoding, because there's no Quicksync support. I don't think using CPU encoding (x264) is a great idea with an i3.

 

For display output you need a GPU or an Intel CPU without F, as they have no integrated graphics.

Yes.

All x86 CPUs (to keep it simple) can encode x264.

No, there is no integrated GPU.

You can software encode on any CPU, but no there is no dedicated hardware encoder on F CPUs since Quicksync is part of the integrated GPU that F processors don't have.
