Picking GPU - UnderArtic - 2025-05-06

HHi im new were bit i think this is rhe correct place to post this.

Im currently trying to build a server for my jellifin needs.

As such im picking a dedicated GPU betaeen arc A310 and A750.

Im currently think of my worst situatuon for 3 silmutaneous users.

1. Transcoding codec from 4k file from 265 to 264, no need for tonemapping.

2. Transcoding codec from 265 to 264 from 1080p file with ass subs.


Thoa bith for 3 silmultaneous users.

Obi nota all will nerd transcoding all the tine just ocasionly.
And using the jellyfin player for Android and lv webos some times player on PC. 

Could someone recomend the graphics card. 

This is my current planes build.

Im also adding some on off basis minecraft server

Pretty sure the 310 and 750 have the same encode/decode capabilities. So I would go for the cheaper option. Three streams isn't much. I dunno if they've come out with their 100-series yet, but that might be worth a look depending on cost in your region.

Are i mean i have only dable in jellyfin recently, when trying a lot of stuff in my laptop, like ubuntu comands and starting some stuff in jelly with my NVIDIA shield.

But im not sure if a310 or a380 or a750 is better for 3 stream in worst case scenarios.

I mean i will neves downscalle 4k and tone map my media since i keep a 4k HDR version and a 1080p SDR copy of the 4k file.

Here's the resident expert on 310 vs 750: https://forum.jellyfin.org/t-arc-a310-performance?pid=12875#pid12875

TL;DR: For Jellyfin, a 310 will have the same performance as a 750.
