Video encoding performance processor HELP!

[ELope6]

I joined this forum just to ask all you knowledgable people about a decision I'm failing at making. I am looking to purchase my first Intel based cpu and am having issues deciding. I currently do alot of video encoding/converting not so much editing. In either event I have been deciding on 2 processors, the 4930k and the 4770k. I have seen how the 4770k performs with quick sync on arcsoft media converter 8 (from what i understand it is optimized for intel quick sync, I don't know about hyperthreading/cores and threads and it's what I use) but I have yet to find any video or data on how the 4930k does. I am going to give an example of what I would like to accomplish and greatly appreciate any feedback which would be useful. Thanks everyone in advanced.

I would like to know which will encode/convert faster while maintaining good quality of a, lets say, 4.3gb 2hr long MKV movie to MP4 H.264 at a full 1080p.

Will the 4770k with quick sync out perform the 4930k using just cpu power?

Hello DaDrkKnght, the following link will allow you to compare both processors. http://ark.intel.com/compare/77780,75123 http://ark.intel.com/compare/77780,75123

Since you are looking for a processor that allows you to perform a lot of video converting or editing, I would like to inform you that the Intel® Core™ i7-4770K Processor comes with integrated Intel® HD Graphics 4600.

This will increase performance of your system, because the CPU will be dedicated only to perform video editing. The transfer rate is going to be throught the video card.

I am running i7 -4700k processor on my computer, the perfomance of conversion from http://www.appgeeker.com/topics/convert-mkv-to-mp4-mac.html MKV to MP4 format is stable and great, a 800 MB movie file generally takes about 10+ minutes, depending on your output settings.

I always transcode video with http://www.firecoresoft.com/mp4-converter.html this software, I will help transcode MKV movie to MP4 H.264 at a full 1080p.
