Hello. I have a problem. I bought GTX 1080 Gaming X 8GB yesterday and I can not stream even in 720p RainbowSix Siege. When set to NVENC, Game will degrade the rendering frames.
My equipment. i7-3770K 1080 8GB 16Gb 1600Mhz
I'm thinking about buying a new process. But I do not want to make a mistake. I spent a lot on the graphics card and did not change anything in the stream ...
Why 1080 Does not cope with 720p and R6B?

in Rainbow Six you can see fps. And it always shows over 150. But the game is lagging and it does not go smoothly. OBS will lose about 20 FPS every few seconds and return to normal. But Game FPS look OK(But only on the corner because the game itself is lagging)
I have a big problem with "Frames Missed due to rendering lag" 5% to 20%
 
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. Enable vsync or set a reasonable frame rate limit 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 just plugged in a new graphics card, make sure it is in the correct slot. In most motherboards, this is the slot nearest to the CPU. If not plugged in there, the card will not run full speed. Even if the board has 2 identical slots suitable for a graphics card, the card must be plugged in into that slot.
You can check if the card is running in full speed, if you get the tool gpu-z and look at the "Bus interface" setting. It must show x16 two times: one before the @ and one after the @ just like in the screenshot on the download page: https://www.techpowerup.com/gpuz/
 
@koala makes a good point, so be sure to check that out! @Fenrir though is absolutely right, you definiitely have the powerful card, but if it is flexing ALL of its muscle in game delivering MAX frames and ULTRA quality, it will have no juice left over to pick up the kids (OBS) on the way to the pool (encode/stream).

Use a frame limit you are comforatble with, I know i'ts hard, I have a 144Hz panel and it kills me to have to go down to 100 or 74 etc. But for the sake if making sure things work and look great, I take the hit. It's not THAT bad when playing to me to go from 144 to 100hz, honestly. Anyway if you don't want to limit frames, try working your settings down.

If you have the HighRes Texture Pack installed, it's not worth it, it bogs the card so bad and in this kind of game I find the texture pack more irrelevant especially given it's 25GB size. So if you don't want to give up frames, give up some fidelity, if you don't want to give up fidelity, you must give up frames. AS a full metal alchemist once told me, everything is guided by the law of equivalent exchange, to gain you must lose. No matter what. :O

Let us know how it goes!

I have msi z77a-g45 with 2 pci express 3.0 slots. Bus interface - x16 3.0 @ x8 3.0 :P goddamit !!!
I have just changed the port and it is already x16 3.0 @ x16 3.0 Will I see the difference? :D
 
Yeah NVENC will be a bit blurry in fast movement, that is normal. What do you mean Badge load? Glad that it is working better! :)
 
1080p 60fps is not really achievable within Twitch's bitrate limits. If you're using the max 6000kbps bitrate that Twitch allows, that is enough for up to 720p 60fps.

Totally agree, I send to twitch at 720P/60 and I need the full 6Mbps for it to be snappy, For 1080P/60 I simulcast out at 12Mbps along my 6Mbps Twitch, I transcode locally and send the twitch stream to twitch and my restream goes to YT Mixer and Smash at the high speed. This way I don't have to pay for transcoding done by Restream, however it's more of a pain and chore, but it's free! :)
