I've recently been using OBS to stream League of Legends in 60 FPS


All has been going well i've been using OBS to stream League for quite some time now, about a year or so now?

Today I've woken up, done absolutely NOTHING to my pc except install Call of Duty Black Ops 3 (On steam.)

And then after that finished I wanted to stream league for a bit and as i've started streaming my 200fps on league has gone straight down to 30 and the stream has lagged ferociously.

As i've said for about a year now i've been streaming in 60fps on league and have been getting a 100-200 frames while playing and no lag spike. Before I started streaming my frames were perfectly average to what I get when I don't stream.

I have no idea what's happening. I've tried reinstalling OBS and even tried to use OBS-Studio to see if that would work any better but it doesn't make a difference.

Please respond as fast as possible with any help. And if i've missed files or points im sorry, im new to posting on support ;~;
Please help. My stream is my life, (Yeah im not a big streamer) but I enjoy using OBS to stream so much and I don't want to miss out on any more streaming days ;-;

(I don't know if this'll help but here are my specs)

CPU: AMD FX 8350 CPU Eight Core Processor

GPU: Nvidia GTX 960 4GB

Motherboard: I dont know my pc is custom built ;-;

Ram: Don't know what kind, but I have 8 gbs of it.

Storage: 600gb spare out of 1TB

As i've said, i've made NO changes to my computer or my OBS I just installed CoD Bo3 and then it started to act up. And yes I even tried turning off and on my computer ;-;

Small Edit: I have updated my graphics drivers as well, in case that would affect it. Everything is up to date.

Edit: This has been fixed! I don't know how to delete a post, so hopefully a mod can help me out here or something.

But i've changed from using game capture to screen capture and for some reason that's fixed it (:
