I'm assuming you are trying to show them with identical options?  Since the hardware is the same, you really should be able to get those two encodes to produce pretty much identical results.

Here I think the significant difference is probably that h264_vaapi is using 2 B-frames by default, but there might be more subtle differences to remove as well.
