I am having a hard time understanding how the hardware for NVENC encoding is structured on a graphics card in the same family and whether or not there is an appreciable difference in encoding performance between a 1660 SUPER and a 3080, as an example. I understand that there are different NVENC generations. Please ignore gaming performance.
My question really boils down to: does the hardware for NVENC vary between GPUs in the same family?
It looks like this means it doesn't matter: Video Encode and Decode GPU Support Matrix [NEW] | NVIDIA Developer
If it's important, my use case is as follows:
Thanks!

If it's important, my use case is as follows:
- Streaming to Twitch at 1536x864 at 60 FPS.
- Recording locally at the same time with a CFQ of 15 for YouTube targeting 1080p or 1440p as hardware allows.
Thanks!
