So I am primarily an FFXIV player that does recording of gameplay for YouTube videos. I've been encountering severe levels of stuttering/lag/choppiness in some of my recordings recently, to levels where I am embarrassed to release a video. I've been trying so many
Example of stuttering (not as bad as I've gotten lately trying out some various settings):

Example of past footage being super smooth:

I genuinely am unsure what changed, in OBS I had to change a few settings the other week and my footage hasn't recovered since. Can't remember what settings I was on beforehand sadly.
Attempts to resolve:
-Downloaded streamlabs OBS, didn't help the issues.
-Tried to run as administrator, didn't work.
-Tried a whole wack of settings like:
Setting to CQP with CQ level 17, 20, 22. And higher CQ level the quality fell off.
CBR even with bitrate of 40,000 stutters, lags and the quality is -VERY- low.
-tried export to.mov, .mp4, .flv and no noticable difference.
-tried Software (x264), Hardware NVENC, Hardware NVENC (new)... nothing really helped.
