Video Converting/Encoding software with GPU Hardware Acceleration?

Greetings,

Part of the reason I invested in a GTX 960 was for hardware acceleration in video-related programs. Currently, I'm looking to compress a few .MKV videos I have with into MP4 with the h.264 codec, as well as hard-coding the SRT/ASS-format subtitles from said files.

The only program I've tried using was Handbrake, which was far too hard on the PC I had back then (a 15" MacBook Pro from 7 years ago). Does Handbrake support GPU hardware acceleration for encoding videos? Also, in any program, will GPU hardware acceleration yield massive benefits over CPU encoding?

I'd appreciate any advice, knowledge, suggestions, or recommendations for other programs you might consider suitable.

Regards,
Aereldor.

Adobe media encoder?

its a breeze to render with

Is that free/open source? Adobe tools tend to carry a hefty premium.

Also, is there a long learning curve before you can get down to business, or is it user-friendly to newcomers?
