OK the first screenshot with the Intel Power Gadget, shows that you have IGPU enabled (the green graph line).
It also shows that the CPU is maxing out at 4.0GHZ.
This implies that even though everything "works" and "perfect" for you, your system is using the CPU and IGPU to do the encoding (i.e. mainly software encode) and not the RX580 (for hardware encode).
Because you have decent i7 6700 CPU, it will appear quick but with big work loads (large 4k encodes over 60 minutes) will take a long time to encode in s/w.
Also have you tested HEVC encode ?
What we are trying to achieve in this thread is to get the H.264 & HEVC encode via hardware..via the AMD RX4XX/5XX.
So when people say "everything works perfect", we ask "what works perfect..software or hardware encode ?"
Perfect means I can record/ save screen with QT and export H264 clips without artifacts. Maybe some work its done by the IGPU but at least its working. Will test more and post here.
His CPU is not heavily used, look at the temps, around 33 C.
