I want to host security cameras and a plex server. Does this mean that my server needs a GPU? (Or would benefit from one). I heard plex does fine with just a CPU

    I have found transcoding to work noticeably better when using quicksync (the intel chip native encoder) rather than a GPU.

    At this point, I think the only real reason you would want a GPU is for LLMs.
