I assume it’s not nvidia. Yet I have no idea how to differentiate between them and neither do I know what a good price is.

Let’s say I don’t want to think about what the video type is. I just want a smooth experience.

Edit: thank you guys!

        I’ve got one and it handles about 3 transcodes from x264 to AV1 fairly effortlessly.

        It’s a champ for Jellyfin. It’s 2024 and Intel produced a really good GPU… the world is weird. :P

      I have one, it is fantastic.

      Someone said that it is “not terribly performent” but it doesn’t matter for transcoding. It can do multiple 4k streams of AV1 & HEVC. That is perfect.

      According to benchmarks, it beat the 3080 and 6800XT when it was released for transcoding performance. That is what you have to look at in this case, you aren’t gaming on it.

      Just remember to enable all of the correct kernel modules to get it working. You often have to manually download the firmware git repo and move it to the firmware folder in Debian to get it working.
