Measured. CPU & GPU figures measured on AMD Ryzen 9 7900 12-Core Processor · NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 (2026-06-20) under OWL's
methodology —
1080p single rendition (not a full ABR ladder), per minute of source.
Curves interpolate the measured VMAF-vs-bitrate points; the ASIC / FPGA class remains a
projected placeholder until that hardware is on the bench.
VMAF figures here are
vmaf_v0.6.1 (the model in force at calibration);
OWL moved live scoring to VMAF v1 in 2026-07 — the two scales are not
comparable, so this page stays in v0 terms until the next
re-calibration.
