Hardware Encoding Option Greyed Out on Intel 8700k

[burgershewrote]

Not sure what's going on here. I've been through lists of processors that include quick sync and this is definitely one of them.

Newest version of CC Premiere.

Windows 10 64bit

Intel i7 8700k

16gb Ram

GTX 1060 gpu

It might be because of Quick Sync feature disabled from Intel settings, this happens especially if you have a discrete GPU (in your case GTX 1060) which might have disabled the integrated GPU of Intel thus you cant use the Intel Quick Sync Feature.

If you see the  system requirements for  Hardware acceleration it mentions that Intel GPU must be enabled  - Adobe Premiere Pro CC System Requirements
