This just started today and I have not done any sort of updates anytime recently. I was trying to stream Rocket League this morning. I was running the game at 144hz just fine. All that i had to do was open OBS and it dropped down to maybe half of my previous fps. Streaming or not, the difference is significant and i need help figuring out what the problem is.

here is a log upload file but you should not need it seeing as how it happens before i even begin streaming

Post a logfile with a streaming or recording session, the one provided does not have it.

I recommend changing the following settings for now:

1) Run OBS as admin;
2) Use "Game Capture" to replace your current "Display Capture" source;
3) Under Windows 10 settings, "Gaming" category, disable every option in ever subcategory but leave "Game mode" enabled.

Any other solutions can only be provided after you send a logfile with the missing information. Finally, are you using more than one monitor?

Thanks for your response. The only reason I did not worry about posting a log file with a live stream is because it literally starts happening the moment I open obs. I do not have to start streaming or anything for it to drop half the frams in game. I do have a 2 monitor set up and I usually only keep obs and music on one low res and then the gaming on the other with higher quality. It is just weird that it only started yesterday.

Even if you're not streaming, OBS is actively capturing video from your game and using GPU resources. Unfortunately, some of the more important data is not shown without a recording/streaming session, which is why it can help to just run a quick recording.
