I have been using hardware encoding (AMD VCE x265) on handbrake lately to quickly size down large 1080p VODs saved from Twitch to put on a 720p tablet for a long plane ride.
My WX4100 is a 14nm polaris chip with 1024 cores
I also have a 5600U laptop with Vega 7 448 cores
for whatever reason I thought to compare the encode speed between them and was shocked that the little vega is more than twice as fast.
searching around on google I never found anything to suggest there was such a large improvement in vega encoding over polaris
is this entirely expected or is there something I'm missing.
