Best settings for OBS Recording
Go to solution
Solved by BrightCandle,
You will get much better performance if you switch a few settings:
Encoder - change it from x264 to NVENC H.264. This will use "ShadowPlay" (sort of) on the GPU and take your overhead to effectively nothing.
Profile - set it to high instead of main, you'll get better quality video for the same bit rate and almost everything can play back high profile nowadays you really don't need to use main anymore.
I would also go about getting OBS Studio. It works quite similar but importantly you can record multiple sound streams, so microphone and game separately. This allows you to set your levels in post production and its otherwise a very similar program.
