Performance Statistics & Export Times

WolfWraith

I Love YTtalk
I'm possibly looking to upgrade my system to an Intel based 1 and would like some people to help with providing some of the export times they've experienced (EDIT: With 2 pass encoding) since some of the benchmarks don't give me the exact numbers or even any of the export times, for a good idea. This is strictly for Adobe Premiere. See below for more info.

I'm probably going with 1 of the new Broadwell-E CPUs (i.e. 6850k or even a 6950x) so if you're using a new CPU that's in the 2011-3 socket range, it would help tremendously. Even if you don't know what I'm talking about, you can possibly still help :)

So please let me know what you're using:
CPU (processor):
GPU (Graphics/Video Card):

And what export times you get on a video that's:
20-30mins long
1080P
8mbps (for the export bit rate)
60FPS (frames per second)


If you export videos that have a shorter or longer duration, please let me know also. And for a bonus, let me know how your system runs during the export phase.

My video length can vary. Sometimes they are 5 minutes, sometimes 10 and I render at maximum render depth. Usually 1080p if I only do screen recording, but if I do some camera shots then it ends up being 4k.

Usual render times for 1080p are between 10-15 mins and a render of 4k (10 min. length) is about 20-25 mins.

Far out, that's actually pretty good, is that at 60fps though? Thanks heaps for that. It gives me an idea of what to work with, maybe I could get away with the Skylake & it'd save me a heap of money (a good $400+ at least) but being a different socket I'm still leaning towards 2011-3 in case Premiere ever starts utilising more than 4-6 cores (unless it has in the newer versions), I'd have the future proof motherboard there.
 
I think if I do desktop recordings they end up being 30 fps.... which makes me think I should probably bump that up to 60 fps, lol.

Both Linus Tech and Barnacules Nerdgasm have done a 10 core Xeon processor with Premiere rendering videos before. I believe they could get 4k video (20 minute length) down to around 10 minutes. Which is pretty damn impressive but I believe they were also using Geforce Titans (or maybe it was a 980 GTX, I can't remember)

I might avoid the Xeons, they're more geared towards servers or sometimes pure workstations. I'm after something that will do gaming + workstation well. I have a 980ti so I should be okay there (the titans will inevitably be better since they're basically hybrids). But if those are 30fps render times, 60fps is usually double the time for me (from what I've noticed). Right now I'm hitting around 1hr 30mins on a 20-25min 1080P60 video, that's on an FX-8350. But in theory it will always need a minimum duration of videoTime x framesPerSecond = exportTime + or - the CPUs performance. If I could export a 30min 1080P60 vid in 1hr or less on an Intel CPU, it might be worth jumping onto 1. It's why I'm curious about real world stats. If the times are fairly similar though then I might not bother for now, it's a big investment for something that doesn't even provide a cent of return to compensate for it. The 980ti alone was a painful buy for me at $1,200 lol

I also just realised I completely forgot to factor in actual editing. Even stuff like text will increase the render times >.> I should also note that I do 2 pass not 1. I'll update the OP to reflect that because I forget, some people do use 1 pass to save time, literally 2x faster. xD[DOUBLEPOST=1471949455,1471948840][/DOUBLEPOST]Also that was a terrible mathematical theory. I was never good at math.
 
GPU: GTX 970
CPU: Intel i7 3770k (gonna be overclocking)

My videos are 5 to ten minutes long, and they're all at 1080p 60fps. Render times range from 20 to 40 minutes depending on how many effects I have in the video.
