would using Intels quick sync on an AMD FX 8350 work

Solution
no it will not. Quick Sync is an acceleration technology exposed by Intel's IGPs. Codecs may use Quick Sync to accelerate their processes if the appropriate hardware and driver are detected. If they are not detected, another form of acceleration or an unaccelerated solution will be used instead.

No quicksync is an Intel technology that only works on Intel's CPU's with onboard Intel HD series GPU's. AMD GPU's will work with OpenCL, DirectX, or OpenGL based acceleration technologies. For instance if you were using Lav Filters for video playback you would use DXVA2 (copyback) as your method for acceleration on AMD GPU's.
