NVENC crashes every time I stream Escape From Tarkov, as the map loads I can see increase frames missed because of rendering, skip frames because of encoding lag. I can't keep a constant frame rate, then when the map 100% OBS crashes, I have nothing else using NVENC, playing other games like CSGO nothing happens quality streams, I think what's happening is my GPU is hitting 100%. But I'm not sure though because everything was running great a month ago. I read all the tutorials and turn off all the things, nothing is working. https://obsproject.com/logs/hMijjSdHGGVoXXLK

All right, so I found out that my GTX 1080 TI was hitting 100% usage as the game would load, so it would crash NVENC. I bought a new GPU 1050 TI, all my problems went away, except my quality of my stream has gone down because of a lower grade GPU. many people on this website tell you too not waste your money on buying a dedicated GPU for encoding, but in my case it fix my problem and I don't have any FPS lag, while gaming/streaming on the same PC. Turn off your sharpness in any game, turn on anti-aliasing, this will help with the checkerboard and the smoothness of your stream. My next step is to buy a updated PC, and use my 1080ti as my dedicated GPU for Encoding <- this is the future for streaming or if someone can come up with a better way to use another PC to stream, there are too many variables that come with it at the moment.
