Which OS are you running there? If it’s Windows, does your software have an option to select MS Media Foundation for video encoding/decoding?
In my experience, GPU vendors, all 3 of them, are including reasonably well-made media foundation hardware transforms as a part of their GPU drivers. MF API is vendor agnostic. Apart from a few bugs I found in Intel’s drivers (it was about h265 hardware encoder, Intel neglected to react), the same API works with all capable hardware.

That might be my next build, a AMD CPU and a GPU for Plex, it will depend on where UnRaid AMD support is at the time (it has had issues in the past from what I've seen on the forums) but I really want my next build to use AMD.
