March 23, 20251 yr hi all. I wanted to upgrade my old 3570 unraid server i use for plex with a few friends/family. i was waiting for intel and its quicksyn to release their new cpu but i can only find bad/moderate reviews on youtube, and almost none using it as a server for transcoding. Has anyone got a review link or can post a self experience ? I'm mostly looking at the ultra 5 225 thx all
March 23, 20251 yr Probably because there isn't much to review. Quicksync "just works" and has done so for pretty much a decade at this point. On Unraid Ultras will need 7.1, in beta now. Edited March 23, 20251 yr by Kilrah
March 23, 20251 yr Author i was mostly wondering how the ultra 5 255 compared to 14100 as the latter one is twice cheaper. it's not Intel® UHD Graphics 730 gpu https://www.intel.fr/content/www/fr/fr/products/sku/236774/intel-core-i3-processor-14100-12m-cache-up-to-4-70-ghz/specifications.html https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/sku/241070/intel-core-ultra-5-processor-225-20m-cache-up-to-4-90-ghz/specifications.html Edited March 23, 20251 yr by tomume
March 25, 20251 yr AFAIK everything since 8th gen from 7 years ago does everything you would want transcoding wise, so probably not much point getting the latest.
