Hey Guys,

 

i dont know which CPU suits my needings the most.. i want to build a new NAS. My existing one is a QNAP ts253pro with a dual Core Celeron. 

It struggles with movie transcoding (example from yesterday: 1080p MakeMKV 1080p BluRay Ripp in VC1 transcoded to h264).

Only need it as HomeShare, Emby Server & Cloud Server and it should be as powerefficient as possible (up to 35W TDP Class CPU´s max)

Would you go with an

Intel Atom C3758 8Core 2,2Ghz 25watt TDP (no HT, no iGPU/QuickSync Support)  <--embedded

Or

Intel I3 9100t 4Core 3,1Ghz(3,7Ghz max Turbo) 35watt TDP (no HT, with iGPU/QuickSync Support)

Comparison Link

 

Or do you suggest another CPU

 

Thanks

The i3 will be better at transcoding.

 

FYI, from VC1 to anything not VC1 is resource intensive and is not, strictly speaking, transcoding. It is decoding and re-encoding.

Thanks!

 

now i´m thinking about getting the non T model, because most of the time its in idle and has the same power consumption (up to 10% CPU usage its the same)

but more Power if needed.
