My server is (currently) running a 2600k. And it shows when trying to stream something to less capable hardware (the new N97 mini pc i got is really having difficulties playing HD/4k movies).
While im still hunting for a motherboard for my 3950x cpu thats currently collecting dust, and while i wait for the new Arc B580 Gpus to get back in stock and for people to see how well it transcodes, I also am sitting on my old GTX1060 (6GB) gpu. What gave me pause in putting it in was two fold.
1. I dont see it being recommended, and rarely ever mentioned as something people use... which is strange given how many of them are out there.
2. The hardware page lists something higher as the recommended.
So im wondering, is it even worth digging out the 1060? Will it make any difference?
I've also been keeping an eye on A380 gpus, but those have been out of stock for a while as well.
