Question / Help Bad Recording Quality After Installing New Graphics Card

[JhoNConners]

So, in OBS and OBS Studio, before and after installing the new card, the video would be saturated and, not sure how to describe this, but bad quality.(You can look at the Screenshot I posted to see what I mean by saturation, and look at the net_graph at the bottom of the screen for what I mean by bad quality.)

When I recorded, with my old gpu, it would be that bad quality(Most likely just a setting I skipped over) and would be fine, and wouldn't lag at all

But now that I installed my new gpu, when I record, the video lags, even though my game is completely fine.

Old GPU: XFX R7 250
New GPU: Sapphire Nitro Radeon R9 380X

Specs:
CPU: Amd(Fx) 4300 with a hyper 212 Evo
Mobo: MSI 760GM-P34 (Fx) (MS-7641)
Ram: 8Gb ADATA

Not sure if it matters, but CPU on idle is 10-15 Degrees celcius going up to around 40 on max load for a minute or two,
And my old gpu would get to 80 degrees C in less than a minute of full load, where as the new one sits at 40 degrees idle and around 60 degrees on full load for 3-5 minutes

EDIT: Don't see where the screenshot is on the thread, so I will just give a gyazo link.

Post a logfile from the Help menu from a session at least 5 minutes in length. We need it to see what's happening on the back end.

That said, your CPU is quite weak.

If you're recording locally only (not streaming) use the HQ Local Recordings Guide:
https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/how-to-make-high-quality-local-recordings.16/

Make sure to follow ALL of the steps, as they're all important. After that, do another test recording and post a logfile if the performance issue persists, so we can see what's actually going on.
