I got a new 1440p monitor and was previously streaming with quicksync on my 1080p monitor and worked great, so I have a gtx 1070 and had a spare gtx 970 laying around so used it as a second GPU for encoding and worked great! streamed for hours, 1080p 60fps stream for hours no issue, turned off my pc and trying streaming again and is not working now, I get terrible framerates even in the preview when using x264, NVENC H.264 or quicksync now and its got me tilted, help me out OBS forum, you're my only hope.

Why would you use a second GPU for encoding? That has no benefit, NVENC already is a dedicated chip on the GPU, it does not affect 3D rendering performance.
With the added GPU, both of them only run at 8x speeds, instead of 16x.
