Premiere Pro apparently doesn't use the GPU for h.264/5, so sadly if you want that, you have to use an Intel CPU: https://www.pugetsystems.com/recommended/Recom

  My understanding is that GPU rendering for h26{4,5} is a lot faster, but the image quality is nowhere close to CPU based rendering. Given that Premiere Pro isn't in the business of real time rendering or transcoding, the business case isn't there for full rendering support. If you really need the speed, maybe render into a fast but large lossless format, then use ffmpeg gpu transcoding?

    It's not that Premiere Pro cares about image quality above all else, because it does use GPU-accelerated decoding. It's that Premiere only uses Intel's integrated GPU for decoding and not with Nvidia's or AMD's GPU decoder. Quick Sync's quality is worse than NVENC's these days so it's likely more along the lines of Intel contributed the patches than Adobe not wanting it out of purity reasons.

      Does premiere pro have its own encoders or do they just shell out to ffmpeg or something?

  That's true, but turning on hardware encoding didn't make a big difference in encoding times for me. I'm planning on upgrading to a Ryzen 9 3900X to make everything else smoother
