Cannot use Hardware Encoding Intel 9900k w/ Titan XP

So lost. I have an MSI z390 ACE mb, intel i9 9900k, 16GB RAM, Titan xp GPU, Win10, Updates ran, BIOS updated, Windows updated, drivers all up to date.

 

I have read forums, and the mb does not have integrated graphics options in the BIOS for what I assume is needed for QuickSync. There isn't ever a monitor port built into the mb.

I am stumped. My hardware surpasses the recommended specs, and yet it is still not available. Tried VBR 1 & 2 pass, h.264 format.

Any help would be great!

Correct answer RjL190365

On your particular system, you cannot enable hardware encoding at all because the gaming MSI motherboard that your CPU is running on does not have its own video out at all (the motherboard itself absolutely requires a discrete GPU just to even function at all), and therefore the integrated IGP is permanently disabled on the board. Accordingly, there is absolutely no provision at all whatsoever to force-enable the IGP.

 

Thus, if you put together that system only to find out that a discrete GPU is required just for it to even work at all, then why did you choose a mainstream Intel CPU platform in the first place? The motherboard that you chose completely defeats the biggest reason to buy that particular CPU platform for use with Premiere Pro in the first place.

I was unaware of the requirements of hardware encoding as I am using Premiere Pro for side work. The appropriate motherboard has been ordered and the MSI is getting returned. Thanks for the help chief!

It may be too late for you at this time, but a beta version of Premiere Pro has added support for NVENC and VCE for hardware encoding (of H.264 and HEVC) with discrete GPUs. That feature is still currently in beta.
