Video Encoding

[Doolali]

I have a 4070ti Super and a 4080 Super and I'm encoding an HD video.

The server has m2 drives and 7900s.

 

ffmpeg -hwaccel cuda -i "X:\input.mp4" -map 0:v -c:v h264_nvenc -preset slow -vf "scale=2560:-2" -b:v 8M -an "X:\2560.mp4"

Both GPUs take 4 minutes to process it, to the second.

Am I just wasting money on a 4080 vs a 4070 or is there something I'm missing that fixes the performance issue on the 4080?

Encoding performance between these two isn't drastically different. What performance issue are you trying to solve?

I'm just looking to process the videos as fast as humanly possible with the right value for money.

Good graph, makes the 4070 look like the best card to get.
