  • nvidia-patch

    This patch removes restriction on maximum number of simultaneous NVENC video encoding sessions imposed by Nvidia to consumer-grade GPUs.

    • Since I have recently upgraded my PC GPU, I have GTX 960 2GB lying around. As I'm aware that Quick Sync is an [absolute beast](https://forums.unraid.net/topic/97593-intel-i3-8100-with-uhd630-the-plex-transcoding-beast/) when it comes to hardware transcoding I'm not sure if I should go with something like i3 8th/9th gen with iGPU or with Ryzen 1600 + [unlocked](https://github.com/keylase/nvidia-patch) GTX 960.
