Lionus Tech Tips coverage of PAXis 2014 is brought to you by Intel and Corsair.

00:00:05.680 --> 00:00:12.880
All right, guys. So, Intel quicks sync with OBS. What does this mean? It allows

00:00:09.519 --> 00:00:15.040
you to use the GPU part of your CPU on

00:00:12.880 --> 00:00:19.279
Intel to encode things. So, instead of using a H.264 encoder, whatever else

00:00:17.199 --> 00:00:23.119
you're using to do all of your encoding, you're able to move that off of the CPU

00:00:21.199 --> 00:00:27.199
part of your CPU and onto the GPU, which would otherwise be doing nothing if you

00:00:25.199 --> 00:00:30.400
have a dedicated graphics card in your system. This is great because it's

00:00:28.720 --> 00:00:33.840
allowing you to squeeze more performance out of your computer that you otherwise

00:00:32.079 --> 00:00:37.120
would not be able to do. My other favorite thing other than just the

00:00:35.120 --> 00:00:41.200
performance increases of this is the fact that anyone with an Intel processor

00:00:39.120 --> 00:00:45.120
that has Quicksync right now is able to use this. This isn't like a future thing

00:00:43.120 --> 00:00:48.239
that only people that buy future CPUs are going to be able to get. This is

00:00:46.480 --> 00:00:51.120
anyone that has a processor that can run quicksync. It's a nice value ad for

00:00:49.840 --> 00:00:55.920
those of you that already own the product. And I really like seeing companies do that. Now, the setup for

00:00:54.079 --> 00:00:59.520
this is quite easy. All you have to do is go in and change a radio button in

00:00:57.520 --> 00:01:02.879
your OBS settings from whatever you have using the encoder right now over to

00:01:01.120 --> 00:01:05.600
quicksync and you're done. Wham bam. That's it. You get a huge performance

00:01:04.400 --> 00:01:09.280
increase and that's absolutely fantastic. If you like this video and you want to see all the rest of our

00:01:12.159 --> 00:01:17.040
guys know, if you tag Linus Tech on Twitter and tell them what inspires you

00:01:15.439 --> 00:01:20.720
about PAX East, you can be put into a contest to win a twoin-1 Taichi from

00:01:18.960 --> 00:01:27.119
ASUS. And if you go to neweag.com right now, you can see a bunch of different deals from Intel on some Gigabyte

00:01:23.520 --> 00:01:27.119
products and some ASUS products as well.
