Question / Help Laggy gameplay recordings

[Ishavsgrim]

There's no lag in-game, but the recording might freeze on one frame for awhile and just switch frames from time to time. It seems to run ok in the beginning of the recordings, but a couple of minutes in the lagging/freezing starts. I've tried recording both DOOM and Overwatch, and Overwatch seems worse but DOOM recordings are lagging as well. I run DOOM on ultra settings and Overwatch on medium/high. Audio seems to be fine.

There is post: DOOM OBS Studio not working? , where i7-4790K CPU @ 4.00GHz handle 1280x720@60 encoder: x264 software, fast preset, main profile, CBR, bitrate 3372, game running GTX 970 at 1920x1080 as I understand.

V-sync is ON or game render as much frames as it can?

 

[Ishavsgrim]

I usually don't use V-sync but i have tried turning it on and there's no difference. And what do you mean "game render as much frames as it can?" It's usually around 100FPS if that helps.

Too much.

Monitor 60 Hz?

 

[Ishavsgrim]

Monitor is 120Hz.

So I set OBS's FPS value at 60 and set Overwatch's FPS limit at 60. It's alot better now, but still abit laggy when there's any "action" in the game.
