So I have got a new PC with a i7-8700, i'm recording Minecraft [dumb I know but I need some help] and I get well over 1000fps while recording, but in my OBS I can see its only recording at 230-180fps when its supposed to be at 480fps, I have tried everthing from lowering settings, and the most common fix is turning off Nvida Shadowplay but that didnt work.

Its been 3 weeks and have finally decided to ask here on the forums for support.
On my old pc with a i7-6700hq [laptop] could record at 240 all the time, but my new PC cant even record at 240fps.

VERY VERY very hard to see but it does 224fps while im playing at 1325fps

Hi! Please update to OBS Studio 21.1.2 and cap your Minecraft framerate to your recording FPS or your display's refresh rate, whichever is higher. If that does not resolve the issue, please post a log from a recording session where this issue occurs.

I will try to cap frame-rate, but I accautly was on the highest version but downgraded and I thought that might be the issue

I really would like to see a log from the current OBS Studio release. There are so many fixes between that release and now that trying to debug an older build is just extra work.

Also, this log also shows attempting to record at 480 FPS, which is just unlikely to be possible.

It is possible, many other YouTubers record at 480 to get a motion blur effect. I will post a updated log with the current version

Number of lagged frames due to rendering lag/stalls: 1800 (51.7%)
It seems, your GPU can not do scene rendering with 480 fps while running the game at uncapped ~1000fps.
Free some GPU resources by limiting your ingame fps to 480, so OBS might be able get enough GPU power to render fast enough.

Without knowing what their setup is, that information isn't very useful. They might be running a 1080Ti or a TITAN Xp or an i9-8950HK, or a multi-PC capture setup where one PC does the gaming and another PC does all the encoding. I should have been more specific: your previous log shows so much render lag that it seems unlikely to be possible with your setup.

On my system, with an i7-7700HQ and a GTX 1060, I can only barely encode 480 FPS while not gaming with a scene of looping images. I still get small amounts of render and encoding lag. If I was gaming, I can't imagine it would keep up.

In your case, OBS cannot render 480FPS fast enough on your system, which is typically caused by GPU overload. You either need to free up additional GPU resources, or determine if your GPU is functioning correctly. The easiest way to free up GPU resources is to cap your game framerate.

You could try rivatuner statistics server (RTSS) for limiting fps in most 3D applications. When you install MSI Afterburner, RTSS is included.
