January 31, 20242 yr Planning on upgrading my Unraid server this year, and was initially going to go with an Intel CPU that had the 770 iGPU for transcoding in Plex. I still might go that route, but this new AMD 8700G is very interesting to me. Since it just came out, I'm not seeing any comparisons between it and the Intel 770 for transcoding, but I'm wondering if anyone has any insights or thoughts into the matter?
December 12, 20241 yr What did you end up with? I slapped an A380 in my AM5 build and want my x16 slot back. Not sure whether to take the hit for transcoding on the 8700GE chip though. Any thoughts?

I ended up going with an Intel i7-13700k as it was on a solid sale at MicroCenter and it has the 770 iGPU, which has been great.
