Test methodology
I recorded uncompressed footage of the games at 2560x1440, then recorded the lossless video with the different kbps, I did this to minimize variables that could affect different things in-game.

I used OBS to record at the different kbps.

Rate control: CBR (3000/6000/12000)
Preset: Quality
Profile: High

Look-ahead: off
Psycho Visual Tuning: off


Sadly the framerate on the GTX with Minecraft is a bit out of sync and I was not able to fix in post.

Use the 4K or 1440p quality for the best image and audio quality.
(Even if you only have a 1080p monitor)
