![]() NK 4.1: NAS Killer 4. Without new disks this should be doable for around a quarter of that budget, so spend what you like on storage after that. Do your 4k streaming only when direct, and this should meet your needs nicely. The current value deal for this is the HP Prodesk 400 G4, around $90. Run a QSV transcoder on any inexpensive Intel box with a 6th generation or newer quicksync capable CPU. Either one is going to provide plenty of horsepower for NAS + any of the *arr dockers. ![]() 99 HP ProDesk 400 G4 Micro Tower - 7th Gen Pentium G4560 2C/4T, 8GB DDR4 - 119. It sounds to me like the NK4.1 is the better deal if you can find the hardware readily. Fortunately Intel CPUs have a little thing called Quick Sync which is. Thanks for any advice.įor NAS build the current sweet spots appear to be either the NAS Killer 4.1/4.2 or the SNAFU, depending on what hardware you find available when you go looking. With that said, any suggestions for a NAS build, and also a transcode system with quicksync? Kinda would like to get pointed in the right direction. I’d rather not do that much but I would like the best I can get for the money to last a long time. Budget wise, I have about 2k USD to spend. I share my server with my fiance’s family in Norway, and a friend here and there, but the majority of its use is at home. ![]() Yes, I will be purchasing more HDDs, with the bargain price at $125, I will probably buy at least 6 of them. I believe my ISP will handle everything but I would like the best way for hardware transcode, in the event I move somewhere in the future that my ISP can’t handle the upload. I would like to do a build, and per JDM post, I need a NAS and then a quicksync. In a month I will be moving to a new place where I will get 1000/1000 mbps fiber and more space. I have 2 shuckable WD 10TB connected to it with a 512 external SSD. It says this is a new account, but I’ve been following for a while, salivating at a chance to do a build.Ĭurrently my Plex Server is ran on Nvidia Shield. I'm looking at getting a NUC or something to move my Plex server to, and I've been trying to figure out the CPU I want to get.Hey guys. One thing I've had trouble determining is how much Quicksync is affected by the CPU it's part of. It's listed in Ark as just kind of a toggle or a revision. Does that mean that capacity is pretty much the same across CPUs if the generation is the same? If they all ran the same clock speed(which I'm assuming influences Quicksync performance), would they all be able to handle in hardware pretty much the same number of Quicksync operations? So when I say capacity, I mean, take an Atom or i3 of the same generation of an i5 or i7. Related to that, does core count affect capacity? I always thought it was a per-CPU package of silicon, but if it's per-core, that would imply more cores=more capacity. Anyone know the answer on that one?Įnd goal is deciding if I can go real low end on the CPU (Atom or i3) and still do what I want or not, since for me, I'm trying to make hardware transcoding do all the heavy lifting. Its the Intel processor's on-board GPU that drives the application's performance. Well, that's still the same problem, comparing the GPU, it's still just identified as a feature that a GPU has or doesn't have.įor example, you want to be comparing Intel® UHD Graphics 630 vs. It sorta makes sense to me that the Quicksync block of a 620 and 630 is probably the same (Like with what Hat said), because they are the same generation product, so if the clock is the same, probably the performance is the same? They both have Quicksync, bot there's not a lot of indication how Quicksync performs on each one.
