I don't see a streaming or encoding thread and I didn't want to clutter up the sub-forum with this question. I'm currently doing a single PC streaming setup, and I like the look of the Turing encoder on my 2080. But I feel like I'm running into resource contention though, as I'm downscaling from 1440p160 to 1080p60 with a 8K bitrate FTL (FTL is Mixer's low-latency UDP protocol) When I first started I did a two-PC setup with NDI to the second PC for CPU encoding but it wasn't at the quality I wanted. But with Turing encoding, I think it looks great. I'm wondering if I throw a 1660 in the second PC and do NDI again if I'm going to see the same level of clarity as I do on the single PC setup. I know one of the benefits of the new HEVC in the NVidia cards was that it doesn't have to go to RAM before going back to the same GPU, but I was wondering if I'll see the same encoding clarity if I offload it to another PC.

Scruff McGruff posted:You could potentially put that 1660 in your current system and assign it to your streaming software as a dedicated encoder, no messing with NDI required (this assumes your motherboard and PSU could support another GPU). OBS lets you assign specific GPUs for encoding. I did consider this but EposVox recently did a video disproving any benefit of doing this.
