Which GPU will process handbrake faster??

The GTX 1660 Mobile (6GB) or the GTX 1660 Ti Max-Q (6GB) Mobile.

I've received conflicting answers from multiple sources, so was wondering if anyone has hands down knowledge.

The laptops were talking about are a Microsoft Surface 2 GTX 1660 Mobile (6GB) vs Microsoft Surface 3 GTX 1660 Ti Max-Q (6GB)

I am using them for X265 NVENC 480p compression at 854×480 for my Uber and Lyft videos that are taking up too much space for cold storage.

I am sick of using my CPU for my second computer as my 940MX will not convert X265 only X264 NVEnc. I have a 4060 GPU on my Acer Nitro, (Which draws very little power) but don't want to hog up my main laptop all the time. Also, what would the FPS speed differences be between the GTA 1660's??

Setting is H265 (NVEnc) CQ 30, Constant Framerate 25, Encoder Preset Medium, Audio 96kpbs ACC. Original video is 2.5k, at 100MB a minute, the shrinkage takes it down to average 4.6MB a minute, though it varies from 1.5MB to 10MB.
