    Recommendation on whether to upgrade CPU or GPU

    My PC specs can't keep up when I play Valorant on my 240Hz monitor, and I only get 160–200 FPS when recording 1080p at 120fps. Spotify and Discord are the applications I keep running in the background. I think my recording settings are fine the way they are because I prefer the outputs not to...

    OBS at idle loads the video card

    As it was written above, in this case OBS in idle ( JUST OPEN, WITHOUT RECORDING, STREAMS, VISUAL, etc.) loads the video card at 30-40% and when recording the load rises to 70%, before this was not so I decided to look for an answer, In all this as an encoder for recording used codec H264 on the...

    HIGH GPU CONSUMPTION?

    HIGH GPU CONSUMPTION? I installed OBS version 29.1.3 but I see that as soon as I opened the program, (Do not transmit, Do not record) Only the open application consumes 20% of the GPU (at rest) at (1680mhz gpu clock) (9501mhz memory clock) at 50º degrees and the cpu stalling at 15%-10% load...

    High GPU use on idle + Desktop Window Manager

    Running a 5800x3d + 3080ti + 32gb ram. OBS idles at anywhere from 20-30% gpu use. Desktop Window Manager (dwm) uses anywhere from 5-10% gpu when idle, but spikes to fill up whatever gpu headroom is left (100%) when playing anything using more of the gpu. GPU-Z shows that the gpu is DEFINITELY...

    Hello! I have no ide what is happening. I was streaming for 6 hours, everything was fine, I started playing CS:GO, everything was fine, when we changed map, the stream sound (only the desktop sound) was started delaying. I thought maybe the Nvidia Broadcast is the issue. I uninstalled, restarted...

    OBS massive frame loss

    Hello! I've been streaming and after booting up Apex legends my OBS suddenly can't keep up anymore. It stutters VERY HEAVILY. My game looks totally fine, but OBS stutters down to like 10-20FPS. Apex uses 80-90% GPU which I believe is normal. OBS started using 50-60% GPU until I turned power...

    H.264 is deleted after formatting and installing drivers again.

    Before I formatted my computer, I had an "H.264" video card driver encoder. But now I only have x264 CPU encoder. It didn't fix even though I downloaded all the drivers. Windows 11 Pro 64Bit Latest version of OBS Studio.

    NVENC actually uses a lot of GPU resources and watts

    The premise of NVENC is to handle video encoding without impacting game performance much. There's a lot of discussion on the internet about the computer resources used by NVENC in various forums, blogs, Youtube videos, etc and the general consensus seems to be that it does use a bit of CPU and...
