Question / Help I'm at a loss. I can't seem to get a consistent 60fps recording in 1080p.

I've tried about 20 configurations and get the same results. Game mode (and other Microsoft gaming options) on, game mode off.

I used to have an i5 2310. Earlier this week I upgraded to a Ryzen 3900X with 32 gigs of ram for the main purpose of being able to record in a nice smooth 60fps (or technically at 59.94fps). On my i5 2310, I used to be able to get a nice framerate in OBS (using NVENC with my GTX 1060) when I'd record my rant videos with an Elgato Cam Link hooked to my mirrorless camera, but at some point last year I had to switch to using Microsoft's Camera app because of lag issues in OBS. I was hoping my problems would be over by upgrading my computer, but the exact same problems remain.

All I seem to be able to record with OBS at a consistent 60fps is when I'm transferring VHS to digital in 640x480 resolution, and that's only right after I restart my computer (if I haven't restarted in a while, I'll still randomly get a choppy framerate in OBS even at that low resolution). Yeah, I'm just at a loss. It was a huge financial investment to make just to have the same results I did before.

Here are examples of when I'm playing Lonely Mountains Downhill, I've supplied log files for both sessions:

The first video gets choppy at 15 seconds in, 32 seconds in, 50 seconds in, 1:07. 1:25.

This is precisely the issue I'm having. Although, switching all monitors to 59hz, and recording at 59.94fps in OBS has not solved it for me. Issue persists.

I've been struggling with this for years. Several different computer configurations, several different software configurations. Literally every game, nothing has solved it. Since it appears to be prevalent on almost every stream on Twitch, I assumed it was just an unavoidable issue.

But that's bonkers. This can't just be how it is. There must be a solution, but this forum is riddled with people who have at least a similar issue, the majority of which are left with no solution.

What gives? There must be an actual solution to this. I'll post videos, logs... whatever I need to get this solved.
