    Rendering/Encoding Lag while Streaming with NVENC

    Awhile ago I posted on here about lag that I was getting when playing certain games like COD. I've accepted the fact that I will get rendering/encoding lag with a game like that, as other games didn't have that problem. For example, I can stream Overwatch and get little-to-no frame loss. But...

    Bug Report Enabling "Studio Mode" increases time-to-render-frame (and thus rendering lag) by an order of magnitude
