If I am encoding from UHD HDR to HD SDR x265 10bit, do I want YUV420P8 or YUV420P10?

x265 -> Base -> Color Sampling/Space specifies i420 and 10bit.

From Filtering -> Vapoursynth -> Color -> HDR to SDR -> HDR10ToSDR it would seem that the target color format I want would be YUV420P10 for 10bit. 

However, the FourCC for P10 is Y3[11][10] and the FourCC for P8 is i420. Do I use the P8 8bit color format for 10bit bit-depth?

Also, is HDR10ToSDR the only filter I need to apply to change the color matrix and tone map for proper SDR?
