Hi. Have a strange issue. I'm using OBS x64? with my settings on attached screenhot.
And after i'm finished capture 30 min video i have a 10 GB file in a result, instead of 2 GB when i'm using software encoding, and some moments on video was very laggy.
You can see what i have on youtube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wB8P8QAdASw
In game i have smooth 60 FPS, and as you can see on previous videos it was always OK with software encoder.
Previous video for example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQplNfDVCxk

My PC Spec:
Core i7 4770k
GeForce GTX 770 4 GB
32 GB Ram DDR3

Game running from SSD, and video writes on other HDD with 7200 rpm.

And other question, with QSV i dont have any problems besides very big bitrate and big file in a result. As i said with software encoder i have 10000 Kbit/sec and with hardware 47000 Kbit/sec! with same settings. Only changing Encoder. And i dont use streaming quality, always using Hihg Quality, medium file size.

I can address the file size bit right now. You pretty much answered your own question. The hardware encoder is using almost 5 times the bitrate, so your file being 5 times the size isn't surprising.

As i see in log file it always using 50000 Kbit/sec, why is need for that? I have set a QSV with 10000 Kbit/sec and it was pretty normal. With no lagg and CPU load about 2%

You can see video with QSV and fixed 10k bitrate here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2xNRmSRB4XI

It's bit blurry on battle scenes, but i think 10k maybe not enought for this game.

Other question why it so laggy with NVENC :)

and as i assume in hardware encoding we have fixed bitrate independent wich Recording quality used?
