Question / Help Dual GPU problem

I have dual GPU in my laptop (intel , Nvidea). If I want to use display capture I have to run OBS studio with intel GPU and if I want to use game capture I have to run OBS studio with Nvidea GPU otherwise I will get black screen.

My question :
I'm using quick sync (intel GPU) to encode the video so that OBS don't use Nvidea graphic card. And my game is running on Nvidea GPU. While encoding OBS using negligible CPU usage 3-4%

So why my game is loosing significant number of FPS while display capture

Display Capture is the least-performant capture method, and should be avoided at all costs.
nVidia's NVENC is a separate part of the GPU. Using NVENC for encoding will have no impact on your gameplay. Quicksync is extremely low-quality by comparison as well.

You will lose some frames in-game regardless.
