Bug Report Choppy frames on Win 10 while using monitor capture

Hi I have been using OBS for about a year now. I use monitor capture instead of game capture because it is easier for me to record gameplay instead of having to change the game everytime. But the thing is a few weeks ago it started lagging. Only on monitor capture. Now it is not horrible lag but it is choppy like 25-35 frames per second but not in games it is like a desktop lag and when I drag windows around my screen so, it is a noticable lag. Another thing is that is saying that I have a high cpu usage when I am using an i7-4790k 4.0GHz. Which is ridiculous when I can play games at ultra without lag while doing other things such as streaming before I started getting lag with obs.
