Is it me or the VOD with quicksync is a bit blocky and laggy?

p.s.
Using no CBR,quality 10,max bitrate 2500,buffer size 1500.
Game resolution 1920x1080 downscaled to 1.50 with bilinear filter,60 fps
Both streams using custom x264 encoder settings: opencl=true

Feedback will be appreciated

Yes, QuickSync have preset between superfast and ultrafast, so you need increase bitrate to achieve same quality as cpu encoding. Btw, I think quick sync ignore opencl option :)

Isnt quicksync supposed to be a "better quality with same bitrate" stuff? Or I totally misunderstood it.? :(
