I'm not sure what would be causing this, I've been helping him troubleshoot, to no avail. Log attached, any input appreciated. Even more appreciated if you solve the issue (tbh)
Question / Help Buddy's stream using NVENC uses 40% CPU, 30% when completely idle

Windows is out of date and this version performs poorly with OBS. Update, manually if necessary.

Turn that off.
Scene design has multiple browser overlays, multiple audio and video media sources. These will consume resources when OBS is open, even if not streaming or recording.
17:23:05.393: - source: 'Display Capture' (monitor_capture)
17:23:05.393: - source: 'Window Capture' (window_capture)
17:23:05.393: - source: 'Elgato Switch' (dshow_input)
17:23:05.394: - source: 'Minecraft' (game_capture)
Ideally you should not mix game and display captures in the same scene, it's non-performant.
Are there two similar models of webcam in this setup? Because that can also cause performance issues.

Also you're running FaceRig? And the game being captured is Sea of Thieves. All on a single PC.
CPU usage seems not entirely unreasonable given what is going on in this log.

You're a godsend, this will do wonders, and if not, we at least have a basis of red flags. Thank you millions!
