Correct me if I'm wrong, but afaik x265 does only enforce vbv restrictions when level is set manually.

And for OP, level 4 @ main has max bitrate of 12Mbps, that could effect quality for 1080p. But as I said above, I'm pretty sure that its left unrestricted at auto, so in that case it wont effect your output.
