What video cards have hardware h.265 encoding is hard to find. Mostly...its mentioned as a comment in some other review. I've been to the manufacturers websites and its "hidden" there too. You can read the intro and think it will identify the h.265 cards....but then.... it doesn't really. Why isn't this just a line item description in the product spec?
Anyway, what I'd like to find is any website that identifies what video cards support H.265? Is it virtually synomous with Direct X 12 or something that simple? I know: Kaby and Gen 6 cpu's support h.265...but my question is for video cards. So far...I'm fairly certain the Radeon RX 480 supports it with the cheapest card being $180. I'm hoping for something closer to $100...if its out there.
(((Bonus?==>Is Radeon always cheaper than Nvidia for comparable performance? Thats my impression from general reading. Kinda an AMD vs Intel sort of thing????)))
Thanks.
