Transcodes worked vastly better with QuickSync last time I bought a machine.
Does the AMD transcoded work as well these days?

My thought process:
Desktop: I need cost for performance…
Server: fps for the Jellyfin, transcodes for the video god

I don’t think so. The Jellyfin documentation still says it sucks lol.
Damnit.

I’d drop in an old Nvidia GPU for transcoding, anyway. There’s lots of old cards that support nvenc. Don’t neglect the Quadro cards, either. Lots of them will transcode just fine without even needing their own cooling fan.
