Personally I prefer XSplit but its up to you.  I just like the clean UI and MUCH easier learning curve.

Depends. OBS has much more features but Nvidia is easier

Livestreaming? Probably OBS in this case.

If you're green, Shadowplay.

If you're anything else, OBS.

 

Jokes aside, try them both and see which is easier for you.

Depends on your machine and upload speed.

The faster your CPU and the slower your upload the better is obs.

Yes + 1

 

I used to be an OBS user but have (temporarily) moved back to ShadowPlay.

 

OBS burns CPU cycles on the same machine as the game ... and i'm bottlenecked on CPU (i5 2500K with GTX1070 at 1440p/144Hz) - so that CPU burn is painful.   

 

So i've switched to ShadowPlay until i upgrade CPU (to KabyLake, planning on Feb2017).   The ShadowPlay files are a LOT larger for upload ... so its not perfect if you are bandwidth or upload limit constrained.

You can use the thing (codec/hardware part) Shadowplay record with in OBS, will still use little bit more cpu than just Shadowplay, but much less than the standard codec in OBS.

OBS gives you lot more options.
