So I know this question has probably been asked a billion times now, but I can't get OBS to record or stream with NVENC. I'm not really worried about whether I'm going to record/stream on x264 or NVENC, but I want to at least have both options. Now this is my first time posting, although I have read many threads with most of the problems being related to some laptop GPU, but I'm on a desktop. Here are my computer specs, if needed:
CPU: Ryzen 7 1700
GPU: GTX 1080 Ti (Gigabyte Aorus Xtreme Edition)
RAM: 16 GB (Flare X 2x8GB@3200 CL14)
Mobo: Crosshair VI Hero (Wi-Fi AC)
SSD: Samsung 850 EVO (this is where OBS is installed, D: drive; not on OS drive, C:)
I attached the log file below.
