YouTube recommended upload video bitrates HELP?!
I have a dual PC setup one for streaming other one for gaming. Streaming PC has 3050 and Gaming has 5090, and I can't find the right upload speed to use for streaming at 1440p60 for YouTube. Some people say set bitrate at 24mbits some say go all the way to 50 mbits. Some say if you go over 25mbits you won't tell the difference and YouTube will re encode it anyway and some say if you go over certain bitrate YouTube will just kick you off and keep you at the lowest upload speed?!?!. Does anyone actually know?? (I do have fiber internet with 1gb up and down) Thank you.

You can go up to 50mbps without issue. They won’t “kick you off”
You should be using HEVC or AV1 for YouTube (HEVC only supported on your 30 series in stream pc), not H264 at which point 24mbps is probably fine for 1440p, but you can go as high as you want up to 50
sweet thanks so much, everyone say different things about the upload bitrate. my current encoder is on nvenc h264 should i change it to hevc? i guess my question would be what would you do if you were me? you are the guy that knows best LOL
nvenc hevc, 30mbps
look good ?
ill fix the 30
i would do p5, not p7
Otherwise probably fine

yeah and the chatgpt is telling me to turn off the Look-ahead for some reason
you can
at high bitrate it's not important
