I recently recorded some footage of me playing bedwars on hypixel on minecraft and when i review the footage its laggy unlike my game

CPU = Intel Core i3
GPU = Intel UHD
 
 
Be aware that OBS is running on an Intel iGPU. This hardware is generally not powerful enough to be used for both gaming and running obs.

1. Run OBS as Admin
2. Remove Display Capture from your scene. Game and Display Capture should never be in the same scene.
3. Your system is below minimum specs for OBS to run and is too underpowered to livestream using software encoding. Livestreams and recordings may run more smoothly if you are using a hardware encoder like QuickSync (via Settings -> Output). The encoder is skipping frames because of CPU overload.
4. Change your output FPS to 30.
5. Your GPU is maxed out and OBS can't render scenes fast enough. Running a game without vertical sync or a frame rate limiter will frequently cause performance issues with OBS because your GPU will be maxed out. OBS requires a little GPU to render your scene.

Enable Vsync or set a reasonable frame rate limit (60 or 30) that your GPU can handle without hitting 100% usage.

If that's not enough you may also need to turn down some of the video quality options in the game. If you are experiencing issues in general while using OBS, your GPU may be overloaded for the settings you are trying to use.

Please check our guide for ideas why this may be happening, and steps you can take to correct it: GPU Overload Issues.

If still having issues after all of those changes, post a new log.
