Hi all, I’m a “niubbo” about Live peer and I’m trying to understand if my current GPU’s are fine for this job…so, what about NvidIa Quadro Pny T1000 4GB LP Smallbox as starting point ?
TIA

Hi!
Benchmark the card to find out - Livepeer - Benchmark Transcoding and please share your results.
It should do 6 streams, maybe even more.
See Video Encode and Decode GPU Support Matrix [NEW] | NVIDIA Developer
# GPU Support in Livepeer
Livepeer enables node operators to transcode video on GPUs while concurrently mining cryptocurrencies and performing other CUDA operations such as machine learning. As there is a very wide range of GPU hardware out there, this document aims to crowdsource a list of specific GPU models that have been tested and verified to work on Livepeer. If you've tested an additional model, please submit an update to this document.
**Overview**
* Livepeer supports transcoding on NVIDIA GPUs with NVENC/NVDEC. Any GPU [listed here](https://developer.nvidia.com/video-encode-and-decode-gpu-support-matrix-new) with those chips should theoretically work. Note that different models may be subject to different session limits that restrict the amount of video that can be transcoded.
* See [this document which lists tested driver versions](https://github.com/livepeer/go-livepeer/blob/master/doc/gpu.md) on the NVIDIA cards.

Tested a Quadro T600 which has the same RAM as the T1000 so performance should be identical:
Nvidia Quadro T600 (Turing TU117 6th Gen 4GB DDR6) -
Like the Quadro P400 , this appears to be capable of more (>14) streams in real-time but is limited by its RAM.
