I believe AMD VCN does the same thing. Though I haven't looked into it. AMD chips also have pretty decent onboard video cores, so you might be able to do hardware accelerated encoding that way too.
Just stay away from Intel 13th and 14th gen chips. They have oxidation issues from the factory and are also over-volting themselves. The former is unfixable and the latter causes unfixable damage.
Does laptop cpus have same problems? I've found mixed results.
We don't know and Intel is being incredibly mum about the entire situation.
Which probably means a lot of corporations that have Intel inside their everyday computers may be less than enthusiastic about what they spent money on.
Read somewhere that everything 65W TDP and up is affected. Laptop CPUs should be mostly fine then.
OK, glad to hear this. Thank you. (Also hope it's not another intel's lie.)
IIRC Intel confirmed all Gen13/14 CPUs with 65W TDP or more have the same issues K series do.
OK, thanks for heads up.
