Using NVENC for streaming results in lower quality then using x264.

That video is 60fps which is why you are not getting as good quality as you expect, not sure what bitrate you are using but I'd guess between 2800 and 3000.

Stick to 30fps is my advice, there's not enough room for even 720p content in anything under 3500 especially for a game like CS:GO where it's constantly changing.

You might want to take a look at this article:

As Adrian said, 30 FPS is where you need to stay. I can't remember if it was here or not but I ran across a guide that gave you a formula that incorporated your bandwidth, resolution, and frame rates at various bitrates and basically showed how raising framerates degraded your quality because of bandwidth limitations/requirements. After switching to 720p/30 and shifting crf to 20 I can stream high quality feeds with very little pixilation when compared to what I used to have when I attempted to stream at 720p/60. Your viewers will be happy with the change. Mine are.
