NVIDIA in DaVinci Resolve Studio
From the last article, you already know what tasks are acceleratable by powerful NVIDIA graphics cards in DaVinci Resolve Studio. Now we have a speed comparison for you against simpler, integrated GPUs. Specifically confronting the RTX 4090 and RTX 4060 with the solution that Intel’s latest Raptor Lake Refresh processors have. The difference in favor of GeForce graphics cards is immense.
Tears of Steel test sample
To further illustrate, we tested encoding the Tears of Steel sample at high bitrate and setting the same bitrate (8K 67 Mbps) for all encoders, which means that the videos have very few compression artifacts. It’s hard to find differences in the resulting frames, with both the AV1 and HEVC NVENC encoders giving good results.
You can download the 4K resolution images (lossless PNG) here if you want to look for differences between individual pixels.
