Intel or AMD for ffmpeg? - eviltoast

With no graphics card specific compilation to the ffmpeg, which among intel or AMD is better for executing

ffmpeg -i input -c:v libx265 -crf 26 -preset fast -c:a aac -b:a 128k output.mp4

Would tight integration between amd cpu + gpu help in this case?

Fyi. Currently i am using intel with cpu only mode for this and its pretty slow.

    Running on cpu will give you better quality and (maybe) smaller output file size, but will take longer.

    Everything’s a compromise and it all depends on what matters more to you

      Better quality:Compression ratio you can easily get better quality out of a gpu then a cpu depending on your settings, but it will rarely be better quality AND compression unless you have a quite slow CPU and cant run a sensible preset
