5070 card recordings look worse than 3060

Hi, I just recently upgraded my graphics card from a 3060 to a MSI 5070 Ventus 2x OC, as well as upgrading from 16gb RAM to 32gb in hopes of increasing game performance, framerate and graphics, as well as getting better recordings whilst playing games. The game capacity has significantly improved which is great, however, my OBS game recordings somehow look worse on this new card, consistently having a blurry and off look to them, nowhere near the quality I had on my old card. I've tried absolutely everything possible in OBS, I can make the recordings look even worse, but no better or even the same compared to my 3060 recordings. I'm stumped on what the problem is and how to fix it and would love any help and suggestions. I've attached a test rec in Minecraft of the issue. https://imgur.com/a/test-5070-mc-rec-S3Iavyx

Use these settings and test again. If you are still having issues, grab a current log with OBS still open after recording and send it here.

Yeah, OP's settings stink but the 5000 Series is stuck in the muck, the drivers suck. OP has the latest driver installed but if it still has issues might have to wait longer or put the 3060 back in & use driver 366.36


Sad...

Let's not jump to blaming things before we have any useful info (like the relevant log and resulting video)

A youtube link and a patch notes wall of text would be jumping and it is irrelevant considering they are discussing quality issues and you are referencing performance problems. Responses like that also distract from actual troubleshooting.

Look at that list of stuff they supposedly fixed with the new driver. Plenty of performance issues there. The bigger question is what isn't fixed yet? I bet the "to do" list isn't anywhere near finished and it will take several more driver releases before they fix everything, if ever. Worst release in Nvidia's history.....

Sorry I meant the actual file directly from OBS but you may want to just try not using AV1...test with H264 instead.
Ah all good, I'm assuming you mean the txt file so hopefully this is correct:

Perfect. Looking at the video I am not seeing any quality issues though which is what I kind of expected based on the log seeming fine as well.
So nothing explicitly bad is popping up? Cause the recording quality is definitely lower than what I'd like and definitely lower quality than what I was recording on the 3060 and again, no changed to settings in OBS or in Minecraft can make it look any better, only worse

The log shows no issues and my eyes also see no issues with the video itself.
