What exactly are you trying to capture? laptops do not like desktop capture and some windows captures due to switchable graphics (aka optimus).

This isn't an issue with OBS, this is an issue of how optimus is designed to work.

every app/game that you capture will need to be set in nvidia control panel to run in high performance. capturing desktop as well with this method is not possible since desktop will always run on intel iGPU.

remove window capture and use a monitor capture (only recommended on windows 10. go to the video tab in OBS and change the graphics to intel.

you will not get good performance especially from streaming do dont expect miracles.
