Intel Hardware Claim from Intel for Vegas Pro

I didn't even know that Intel was aware of Vegas Pro. Anyway, they have a new processor. There's a lot of blah, blah, blah in this article, but this, I felt is the significant paragraph for readers of this forum.

"Of course, most of the performance gains are probably going to be found in video and photo creation, and when it came to a video editing workload in Magix Vegas Pro, Intel says that the 11900K offers up to 88% better performance gen-over-gen. With a 4K video editing workload in the same app, Intel saw as much as a 35% increase in performance against the Ryzen 9 5900X. Intel even shared some performance comparisons for the Core i5-11600K, saying that it’s up to 61% better at 4K video editing over the Intel Core i9-10600K."

This paragraph above, came from this article: https://www.slashgear.com/intel-details-11th-gen-rocket-lake-desktop-cpus-led-by-core-i9-11900k-16663930/

Very interesting. I wonder how much of that is the integrated GPU. Glad they see a big gain for Vegas.

A little inside detail for you here...

We work very closely with Intel and they have been very helpful in improving both encoding and decoding support with their integrated GPUs (and the dedicated GPUs) as well has helping us improve general video engine performance on the CPU side of things.

That does not mean we ignore other GPU platforms...we have close relationships with other GPU manufacturers as well. These relationships are very important for our future success and they have provided outstanding technical support for our small team. Intel and other vendors have been a valuable partners for us and while it seems at times our overall support for hardware seems lacking, we have been very busy working to get improved support in place and we do expect our customers will see outstanding performance in the future as we continue to improve VEGAS Pro.

@VEGASDerek...Thank you. I had no idea.
