Thanks for the Input so far.

The MadVR calculation makes sense. The more frames you got the less time the card has to produce the image.

Now I have to decide between the Ryzen 1200 or 1600 and between an 1050 Ti or 1060. The better CPU would give me more headroom for 4k, the better GPU more headroom for MadVR.

Oh okay on one side the gap between the G4560 and R3 1200 is indeed quite big, on the other side - 4k is really that demanding? Ryzen 1600 because of the extra cores or more GHz?

Btw thanks for SVPmark. Didn't know there is a benchmark for SVP.

Hey Guys,

I'm planning to build a "kinda" decent little HTPC. After testing SVP several times on my main machine I thought it's time to grab some money and upgrade from the old RPI3...

So the question is now, because its really hard to find some real benchmarks about SVP and different components, are the following parts enough and what can I expect:

- Ryzen R3 1200 --- I know there is Intels G4560, but Ryzen is more future proof i guess. How much does SVP profit from 4 real cores vs 2 real 2 HT.
- 1050 Ti --- maybe the passive one. 1060s are currently
- 8 GB 2400 or 3000 Ram --- does ram speed matters in SVP, especially on a R3.


How will the performance be like?

- 1080p 24 Hz to 60 Hz --- should be working fine

- 1080p 24 Hz to 60 Hz with some picture enhancements (MadVR) --- I have a reference to an old GT630 which is still used in another HTPC with some MadVR Settings. How much does the higher framerate comes in places? Is it 1:1 comparison? Having MadVR working with 24 Hz and then with 60 Hz means 1.5 times more power needed?

- 1080p 24 Hz x265 to 60 Hz --- should be the same experience like x264 right? CPU and GPU can decode x265 natively.

- 1080p 24 Hz to 60 Hz x265 with some picture enhancements (MadVR) --- haven't any experience with that, so maybe you can give me some. Any difference when using x265 and MadVR vs x264.

- 4k 24 Hz to 60 Hz 10 Bit and so on --- don't know either anything about that, but for the future I would like to know some details pls.

My own conclusion would be. Depending on how far I use MadVR all 1080p files should be good to go (even x265?). I'm just a bit curious building it and then in one year 4k drops in my home and I can exchange my just 1 year old GPU again.

I'm planning on max 400 Eur which kinda works with those components.

Regards.
