if you want to get the absolute best video quality, then you do not want to use NVENC. There is an entire thread https://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=172618 where near the end Turing NVENC is compared to x265 and it's not even close. There are also multiple other threads that discuss "current" best methods, though some are 2 years old. It may be best to start a new thread, as things have changed, and it would be easier for other users to find to discuss. I'll be honest, I don't even know what's good to use these days either, and could do with some help also! All these new commands and switches to increase quality or speed it up might as well be ancient Greek at this point.

On a side note, 8 hours is pretty fast. If you just want to get faster, grab a 3900x as it's almost twice as fast as your chip. https://www.techpowerup.com/review/a...-3700x/13.html (also uses less power)
