AMD Ryzen 4000 mobile processors now promise up to 43% faster video exports in Premiere Pro

Adobe’s Premiere Pro 14.2 update brought with it support for hardware-accelerated encoding for H.264 and HEVC formats with AMD GPUs in Windows. This take advantage of AMD Advanced Media Framework (AMF) to speed up video encoding on AMD GPUs, including the AMD Radeon Graphics that are in available in all AMD Ryzen 4000 mobile processors.

In a Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 equipped with an AMD Ryzen 7 4800U, encoding a 4K video was accelerated by a significant 29% when GPU encoding was used, as compared to when just the software encoder which relies solely on the CPU was used. The AMD Ryzen 7 4700U also posts a 26% improvement and even the AMD Ryzen 5 4500U promises a 25% faster export when GPU encoding is used.

Meanwhile for the more serious content creators, AMD’s Navi-based GPUs promises performance gains of up to 43%. The combination of a dedicated GPU and AMD’s latest AMD Ryzen 4000H series processors are really quite potent options for those who demand higher performance.

Have you updated your Adobe Premiere Pro to better take advantage of your AMD graphics solutions?

Pokdepinion: I do wonder how will the AMD’s AMF compare against Intel’s QuickSync.
