The CUDA encoder with the GTX 1080 clearly bests(beats) the Software Encoder even on my i7-6950x 10 core system.
Correction: Under 1.0.9.0beta, H.265 did not complete successfully on my system with the CUDA decoder encoder as originally stated. The settings had reverted to the default h.264 so the encode was h.264 rather than h.265. Workaround introduced under 1.0.9.1 and CUDA HEVC encoding under 1.0.9.2
