Question / Help My game stutters like crazy when I turn on OBS lately...

So recently I've messed around with the controls a bit and OBS started to stutter when I play, and when I see the recording it's laggy as hell. And when I put it on 1080p it's twice of a problem. I've given up on the fact that I can't record on 1080hp but the mad stuttering is not giving me a break. Can someone guide me through what setting to use to have a normal framerate with no FPS stuttering.

No changes to the encoding settings beyond the downscale are required to increase resolution. If your system isn't able to keep up, you're going to need to upgrade hardware.
 
With the recording settings, slower-sounding x264 profiles will be able to squeeze the same quality video down to smaller filesizes. More advanced math goes into the picture quality allowing the encoder to use less bitrate.
 
The high quality recording guide I linked is about as clear as you're going to get. Youtube throws away some of the quality because of how they process the video.
