Same Problem here. Ingame 80+ fps but my obs shows 23 - 60 fps and the preview is really unstable and laggy.

I have the same problem trying to stream dauntless and Overwatch. I downgraded to 20.1.3 and still no fix so I hard resinstalled 20.1.3 with no saved settings still FPS dropping.

 

[VinnyX]

Yeah I have no idea what the hell is wrong with this.

Good morning,

i solved my problem! :)

i capped my fps @ 90 fps with the nvidia inspector tool. No lags, smooth 60fps @ 720p and fast preset.

[VinnyX]

New log?
First log shows:
Number of lagged frames due to rendering lag/stalls: 43892 (43.1%)

This means, your GPU is running without fps limit (or too high details), so the game will utilize up to 100% GPU load. You need at least 10% GPU headroom, so that OBS can render the scene fast enough.
