Hi all,
First time using this software, after having converted from console gaming using the HD60 Pro and have to say, so far it's looking great. Props to the DEVs.
As a fairly new Youtuber, I wanted to ensure that the quality of local recordings I'm making are as best as they can be from the offset after switching to PC, so I'm doing some tinkering but wanted you guys, when you have a spare moment to just double check my settings before I go live.
I've obviously read up on as much info as I can but with information overload and so many people claiming they have the best setup/guide I'm struggling to pinpoint what settings are best currently and thus seek some direction if what I currently have is optimum for local recordings.
I've followed this guide
https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/how-to-make-high-quality-local-recordings.16/
As it seemed somewhat more likely that a source guide on OBS forums would be more current and pertinent to what I was after, understand each system is different I'd rather get an opinion from the horses mouth as they say.
Any help is appreciated and I'd be willing to donate some £'s for any help that can point to me to reaching some decent clarity in the vids.
My specs
Lenovo Y50 i7 4710HQ 3.5Ghz (unthrottled all cores active)
16Gb DDR3
GTX860M 4GB DDR5 (overlocked slightly)
1TB HDD SSD

The quality is pretty decent when using x264 & NVENC but wondering if I can push my setup further, as it's slightly grainy in areas especially in full-screen (quality degradation is to be expected in a bigger picture but wasn't expected it that much), the quality in NVENC is pretty decent too running at 70000 Kbit/s but again slightly grainy in full-screen.
