Getting GPU To Be More Utilized In Premier Pro

[SuperShermanTanker]

So I just edited and am currently rendering a 10 min clip where I did some simple title making and trimming with transitions and the slight bump in brightness because it was nighttime in the video and even on a i5 4590 off of a SSD with 8gb of RAM and a GTX 650ti the machine is taking 15 min to render the clip with the CPU capped at 100% turbo boosted to 3.5ghz from it's 3.3ghz stock and the GPU is sitting at 10-14% utilization when rendering in H264 1080p 60fps at 15Mbps target bit rate with 20Mbps as the max bit rate. Is there any way I can set the settings or configuration of something to make it utilize the GPU a bit more or is that the most I'm going to get if I'm going to be rendering in H264 with my machine's config?

Rendering doesn't use the GPU much. Most GPU utilization is during the actual editing process.

Ok thanks guess the only way to get it to go faster is a faster CPU. I guess I'm going to have to wait until my main PC is back up so I can overclock my i5 4690k to see how much that makes a difference.

Yeah I have the same situation.  It will 100% pin my 4770k for the duration of the render and I'd love to use my GPU instead if I could but I don't think there's away or it would happen by default.

Looks like my CPU will be pinned for a few hours now had to do a small edit with the trimming and now I have to re render it and I also want to have a second copy of it upscaled to 4k because my camera captured the video at 35Mbps and I'm wondering if I can get a slight boost of quality from YouTube playing the video back at 4k. I'm now rendering at the usual quality I render at which is 15Mbps and after that I'm rendering at 35Mbps upscaled to 4k. One thing I can say is thank you for it being night time and the feature to que up the video rendering so now I can just leave it to do it's thing overnight.

Yeah that's actually what LTT does.  They work with 1080p footage but they upscale to 4K for youtube to leverage the higher allowed bitrate

Well hopefully my Nikon D5300 can output a good enough quality to be upscaled to 4k and still look decent because I don't have any cameras like LTT has that can shoot in 4k

I just looked up YouTube's recommended bitrates and my Nikon's 35Mbps bitrate is right within YouTube's 4k bitrate at 30fps so according to YouTube if I upscale it to 4k I should be getting my camera's full quality played back on YouTube

These are recommended UPLOAD bitrates.

These are not the bitrates of the stream!
