Question / Help Local recording is really laggy.

Specs

CPU: Intel i5 3570k
GPU: Radeon 7850 HD
Memory: 8GB
OS: Win 7

When I start local recording it kills my game's FPS. I probably get like 15-20. I know my rig isn't anything great, but I figured I could at least local record with low quality. The OBS settings I have are the ones that are in this thread. https://obsproject.com/forum/threads/how-to-make-high-quality-local-recordings.12600/

Oops, sorry about that. Here's a couple. http://pastebin.com/237dWYqc http://pastebin.com/FESzL4ua

You need to either downscale your recording resolution under Settings > Video, or change your preset to superfast (or ultrafast) under Settings > Advanced. Your CPU is having trouble keeping up with both running your game and encoding the video at the same time.

Fantastic, that worked great. Thanks for your help!
