HW-dekodering benchmarks for GTX 650 eller lignende?

General Support / Questions Hardware-kodning

I have an older Nehalem i7 2.8GHz CPU running a variety of media center and transcoding tasks and have started wading into the MCEBuddy waters. It’s quite slow (takes about 75min to scan/recode a 30-min show), and am considering buying the cheapest Kepler card I can find (which is probably a used 1GB GTX 650 card) to speed things up. Before I do I was wondering if anyone had a similar config, or any experience with the GTX 650 that might help get my expectations in order.

Wow a GTX 650. that is a blast from the past. While it is technically compatible there are some major limitations.

  1. It is very old and slow as hell.

  2. With such an old card and an i7 cpu, it will probably be slower then what you currently do.

  3. It is an old card with no support for newer formats such as h265 and others.

  4. Did i mention that it is very old and slow.

  5. NEVER BUY USED HARDWARE!!! Hardware goes bad after some time and sellers try to unload their old junk on unsuspecting buyers.

I would recommend a quadro P400. It is a very cheap card that is fast and supports older operating systems and hardware. It is single slot and does not require extra power connectors.

Welcome to the family.

Jeg ville lige genoplive denne gamle tråd for at tilbyde hjælp, hvis andre står i samme situation.

Jeg har et GTX 650 TI Boost.

Ja. Det er et gammelt kort.

Ja. Der findes hurtigere kort, hvis du vil betale en formue for grafikkort, som efterhånden er decideret røveri.

I mit tilfælde brugte mit system ikke grafikkortets ganske udmærkede hardware-transkodering CUDA-funktioner.

MCEbuddy brugte nemt 2 timer på at transkode 1 times video med alle CPU-kerner på 100%. Jeg vidste så, at hw-transkodering ikke virkede.

Først da jeg så en fejl i debug-loggen, gik det op for mig, at jeg skulle opdatere kortets grafikdriver.

Da jeg gjorde det, faldt en 2 timers transkodering til 25 minutter.

Mine CPU-kerner lå på 34-53% hele tiden.

Så for at svare på det gamle spørgsmål: der er ikke noget galt med et GTX 650.

Det fungerer helt fint, med aktuelle drivere, til hw-transkodering med MCE Buddy.
