So I'm having an issue with FPS for OBS only. The only way I know how to describe it is for example WoW has a FPS setting for Background FPS target. You can set it to 1-200. Well when I have OBS selected like I want to change settings or something in it's perfect. But if I go back to the game and OBS is now a background process my FPS drops to 15 in OBS but my game runs fine. It does the exact same thing when streaming and in preview mode. I even added it to the list of games in Radeon settings.
