Lag in game on relatively High End Laptop

[JosephRaphAW]

I have a Acer Predator Helios 300 2018 with a GTX 1060 Core I7 8750H and 16GB Ram and have tried recording using many diferent settings but they all seem to heavily impact preformance of my games when running obs (just having the program open). The two games I have tried are Minecraft Java and terraria and both have major frame drops, Minecraft will not even get past the title screen most of the time if I increase the settings. Is my PC not powerful enouph to run these games while recording or is this some kind on preformance killing setting I need to turn off? any help is appreciated

1. Your Laptop has two GPUs. OBS is running on the weak integrated Intel GPU. For better performance as well as game capture being available you should run OBS on the dedicated GPU. Check https://obsproject.com/wiki/Laptop-Troubleshooting
2. Update your Windows 10 to 2004 if available.
3. Run OBS as Admin
4. If still having issues then
Your log contains no recording or streaming session. Results of this log analysis are limited. Please post a link to a clean log file.
To make a clean log file, please follow these steps:

1) Restart OBS.
2) Start your stream/recording for about 30 seconds. Make sure you replicate any issues as best you can, which means having any games/apps open and captured, etc.
3) Stop your stream/recording.
4) Select Help > Log Files > Upload Current Log File. Send that link via this troubleshooting tool or whichever support chat you are using.
