GPU vs CPU: Optimizing AI Translation Speed

AI models are heavy. They require billions of calculations. Anolig Media Translator is optimized to run on both standard processors (CPU) and graphics cards (GPU), but the difference in performance can be staggering.

The Benchmark

Translating a 10-minute 1080p video:

• Standard CPU (Intel i5): ~8-12 minutes.
• High-End CPU (Ryzen 9): ~4-6 minutes.
• NVIDIA GPU (RTX 3060) with CUDA: ~40 seconds.

Why the Difference?

Neural networks rely on matrix multiplication. GPUs have thousands of small cores designed exactly for this type of math, whereas CPUs have fewer, stronger cores.

Pro Tip

If you have an NVIDIA card, ensure you have the latest drivers installed. In Anolig's settings, check the "Use GPU/CUDA" box. You will experience a 10x to 20x speed boost, transforming a rigorous task into a momentary pause.
