I’m curious how many NVENC units there are in the nvidia 3080? Now that the board is out, I’d love to know if someone has tested this. Thanks.

Hi.
Sorry for slow response.
GeForce RTX 3080 has 1 NVENC engine.

Is there any difference betwen RTX 3k series in performance of NVENC over 2k series?

Both have same 7th generation NVENC hardware engine. Encoder performance should be similar. Actual performance may vary based on a few other factors - clock values, memory, SM performance etc.

How SMs involved into that?
