Encoding Performance

Handbrake is a popular application for encoding video and we've used information technology to change over a 4K H.264 video to 1080p using H.265 and recorded the average frame rate. The 1950X was 6% quicker than the 7900X in this test, not a huge realise but given both CPUs cost the same amount it's a hot result for the Threadripper CPU. That said the 1920X does monetary value 33% more than than the 7820X and yet IT was just 5% quicker here, so a fewer awing upshot for AMD in that comparison.

The Premiere Pro Mil results stake ME the most as I spend a lot of time rendering these 4K videos on my Core i7-6950X editing machine. Back when I first reviewed the Kernel i9-7900X I aforesaid that I planned to probably replace my 6950X with Threadripper.

Yet, I also noted that the current version of Premiere Pro CC isn't that good at taking advantage of higher core consider CPUs and as a result the 7900X was just 4% quicker than the 6950X, thusly a bit of a unsatisfying result there. This benchmark is CUDA-expedited by a GTX 1080 Ti so hold up that in mind, but there aren't a huge amount of effects in my videos for the GPU to accelerate.

Given that the higher-clocked 7900X was conscionable 4% faster than my 6950X and both are 10-core parts, I wasn't hopeful for Threadripper to save me much time. Needless to say, I was pleasantly stunned when the 1950X took just 128 seconds to render the 1 moment 30 seconds sample distribution video. That's a 12% advance over the 7900X. Meanwhile the 1920X was also just 7% slower than the 7900X.

All of this is to say that it looks indeed corresponding my next progress leave employ a Threadripper processor -- the 1950X specifically.
