Can't find encoder in the steam settings, everything is laggy.

[Abs0lutzero273]

Hi all, I really want to just record game time through obs I have customised some settings in attempts to make the video output not laggy, but my actual in game is also super laggy when I have OBS running and I cannot find my Nvidia encoder either so having to use the x264. Below I have attached the logs. I am not very tech savvy so please plain english here!

1. Update OBS from https://obsproject.com/download
2. Install the newest version of the drivers for your NVIDIA GPU from https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/drivers/
3. Run OBS as Admin. Right click on shortcut, properties, advanced, check box, ok, apply, ok.
4. Change your OBS Audio Sample Rate to 48 kHz
5. Display and Game Capture Sources interfere with each other. Never put them in the same scene.
6. Record to MKV or FLV. If you record to MP4 or MOV and the recording is interrupted, the file will be corrupted and unrecoverable.

If you require MP4 files for some other purpose like editing, remux them afterwards by selecting File > Remux Recordings in the main OBS Studio window or enable Auto Remux in the Advanced Settings.

Post new log after making those changes.
