Geforce Rtx Nvenc
Nvidia rtx ampere gpus now support av1 decoding the first ampere graphics card to launch earlier this year the nvidia a100 accelerator does not have any video encoding capability.
Geforce rtx nvenc. The turing nvenc encoder. This isn t a hardware change it s a software change. One thing that is great about nvenc on the geforce rtx 20 series and geforce gtx 1650 super and up is that all gpus have the same nvenc with the same performance and quality from the rtx 2060 to the rtx 2080 ti. On tue mar 26 2019.
Geforce rtx gpus feature our dedicated hardware encoder nvenc which is an independent section of the gpu used to encode video. The tu106 die on the other hand is present inside the geforce rtx 20 series cards such as the geforce rtx 2060 rtx 2060 super and rtx 2070. The gaming oriented geforce rtx 30 series also based on ampere architecture. Nvidia has reportedly increased the concurrent sessions limit of its nvenc hardware video encoder on geforce graphics cards to 3 up from 2.
Nvidia artificially limits how many simultaneous nvenc streams can occur at one time for geforce cards. And in the new rtx 20 series nvenc performs better than x264 fast and on par with x264 medium a preset that requires an expensive dual pc setup. People are doing more and more streaming and this costs the basically nothing. Previously it was 2 now it s 3.
My best guess is that this is a pr move because of the pandemic. A geforce rtx 3080 and more. Gerardo delgado senior product manager for broadcasting at nvidia breaks down all of the benefits of streamin. By gerardo delgado cabrera.
