I know its possible to encode using your GPU as opposed to CPU but surely the CPU is quicker especially if the software utilizes quad core?
 
I have no idea how that can be, care to elaborate? Does the GPU have more processing power. Any idea what software I would use to encode with that would utilize the GPU instead of the CPU?


As in sig I'm just wondering if the GPU would be quicker than the CPU?
thanks
 
by the sounds of it, there isnt much in it speed wise and perhaps better to go for a more feature rich software at the cost of a few minutes of encode time.

Basically looking to encode avi files to either dvd format or any other format, was just wondering if it would be quicker doing it with the GPU or the CPU in my sig.
