I have no experience with multiple GPU's but when I look at that, I see you're monitors are plugged into your 1060 but since you have PhysX set to Auto Select your 1070 has been selected.

These settings are different, you were using CBR in the log you posted. CQP is the way to go. Set your Keyframe Interval to 2. Preset to Quality, uncheck Psycho Visual Tuning & you can set Max B-frames to 0 as neither of your GPU's will encode B Frames.

This is from your log:

both use the 1060 though I should probably swap over to 1070, changed all the settings to what you said still no changes... I'll get a new video and post log

The log you just posted shows you're still running OBS v25.0.8, you still have your monitors plugged into the 1060 & after multiple recording attempts you still have errors.

I updated weird, lemme try restarting my pc...
My monitors are plugged into the 1060 still since I can't be arsed to rearrange the wires atm so I just have the PhysX use 1060 aswell

beside that the settings are 720p 30 fps and you record with cbr. Set it to your monitor resolution (1920x1080) or (1920x1200) depending on which monitor you play and under output your rate control to CQP

AH THAT FIXED IT, must have been the screen resolution being different? I didn't mind the 30 fps because moft of this is for a video project I'm working on where the videos are going to be heavily edited but the quality still needed to be readable. Thank you so much!

Cool

Some additional suggestions going forward

Update Windows soon

Run OBS as ADMIN

Disable these & if you're recording games, Enable Game Mode

08:43:24.145: Game DVR: On

Late reply, I'll def try to fix some of the above errors, the ones on the bottom look like some of the meme stuff I use when I talk with friends so I'm not all to worried about those errors, p just images not being able to get the right refrences since I moved the file paths. Thanks for the suggestions!
