HI,
I have 3 gpus in my system:
GPU0: gt 1030
GPU1: 3080 TI
GPU2: 1070 TI

Monitor is connected to 1030 but OBS is using 3080 for screen capture. How can i pick which one to use?
 
the problem is obs only capture the Card where ts running on didnt know why use use 3 cards its the same problem you have with notebooks with 2 GPUs the problem is when you running obs on one card and want to capture the other card you must copy the complete framebuffer from one to the other card and little tip so many Cards on one PC make no sense only you need 9 Displays
On the contrary, it makes your system even slower because all your PCI lanes are used and 16x is reduced to 8x depending on the processor
 
What are you talking about? Did u even read what i wrote?
Obs is NOT using the card which display the content. It is using the card which is NOT for displaying content. That's my problem.
I do NOT want to use other card for encoding (although it should be possible).
My 3080 ti is mining and OBS constantly trying to use it.
I cant explain it more dumber than that
 
then select an other display adapter as main display in windows and on nvenc you can select another GPU when you want to use nvenc and the third thing is the GT1030 didnt have nvenc ! and when you mining did you use display emulation dongles ?

Didnt know that 1030 does not have encoder, classic nvidia play...So i have to go to advanced settings to set this. Ok, thanks
