The correct answer for that is crf 22 or so plus a speed preset tolerable for your hardware. The presets come with x264/x265/ffmpeg.

I am not sure if this is still the case, but be aware that a specific CRF on x264 vs x265 might mean a different (perceived) quality. It was certainly the case a few years ago.

I think so. It's also different in 8-bit and 10-bit.

Plus maybe denoise in front to keep the size lower.
