right now I have a Core i5 6600 (non K) in my server. It's also running a GTX 750ti 2GB GPU. It's mostly running torrents, Plex and a media server to share throughout the home. I've run out of hard drive space, so I've been going through my library and re-ripping a lot of my videos into smaller MKV files using DVDFab. With the setting on lightning compression, it goes decently fast. MKV to MKV, however, takes a lot longer.
I've been toying around with upgrading the CPU to a 7700k because I'm also going to start running a VM system, so having a little extra cores would help in that area. I'm on the fence, so if a Core i7 7700k with the Intel HD630 encodes faster than the HD530, it may help me decide to spend the extra money. I have a LOT of videos and expect to be at this for a couple of months already.
I have been Googling it, but only benchmarks I find are gaming ones.
