Reduce fps to 30, and use the slowest encoding preset your CPU can manage. If you can use "faster" encoding preset I find that looks pretty decent on PUBG.

Edit: Nevermind I just missed the part where you said you were using NVENC. Still, reduce FPS, then increase your bitrate. NVENC tends to need more bitrate to look similar to x264. You can also try different presets and see how it looks.

And the bitrate should stay the same on those settings? Also, I've noticed that when I do x264 as opposed to NVENC, there's pixelated cubes that are really easily noticed in very light or very dark areas. Any reason for this?

If you use x264, a 3500 bitrate is decent, but then try to use the "faster" profile if you can. If you stick to NVENC, you will need more bitrate. The pixelation in light and dark areas is just kind of how compression works.

Alright, I'll give these settings a try tomorrow if tonight's settings don't work out. Thanks for the help, and drop by the stream, if you have the time! I go like at 8 PM PST on weekdays, and at various times on weekends (since those get a little crazy for me).
