[Libav-user] Faster X265 encoding, buying new hardware, advice please?

[Michael IV]

I would recommend to invest into good Nvidia GPU and use NVENC which
outperforms libx264 and reduces CPU consumption dramatically.

You could try to find an online performance test that uses
libx264, I suspect current AMD cpu's are supposed to show
very good results.
