OBS encoder overloaded when using NVENC

[Elfman]

When I have any game open I hit the "Start Recording" button on OBS ,it starts the recording but completely freezes my pc for 1-2 seconds then crashes the game and then says "Encoder Overloaded" but the recording continues. This only happens if I use NVENC encoder, x264 one works fine also when this happens my GPU load spikes up from 50% to 100% for no reason (I assume what causes the crash). I've tried reinstalling OBS, updating graphics drivers, and reinstalling graphics drivers. 1070 is a really good card should be able to handle 60fps 1080p. Has this happened to anyone else?

h265 is more taxing on the gpu, but it isnt that taxing. Maybe use Nvidia Shadowplay for recording, works fine for me
