For libx264 and libx265: CRF and bitrate encoding (-b:v)  are mutually
exclusive methods of rate control; yet you have specified both

 "Compression efficiency" implies some measure of quality at a given
bitrate. Higher compression efficiency implies higher quality at a given
bitrate. But you have no measure of quality. And you have different
bitrates.
