Intel’s AV1 Encoder Outclasses NVIDIA & AMD - Wccftech

In the above video, EposVox placed Intel's AV1 encoder and tested the technology against several H.264 encoders.

Included in the testing were AMD's AMF, Intel's Quick Sync, NVIDIA NVENC, and software options available in streaming packages, such as the streaming software OBS.

At 3.5MBps, Intel's AV1 video encoder scored 83 points, while at 6MBps, it reached 90 out of 100 points available.

AMD and its AMF encoder were similar to NVIDIA, and Intel's Quick Sync encoder reached 76 and 87, respectively.

Intel utilizes the Quick Sync encoder in the Alder Lake platform currently.

As EposVox has educated users on streaming in general, it is notable that 3.5 MBps is more accessible to viewers and the sweet setting when using Intel and the AV1 encoding.
