Question / Help OBS Running Perfect When it is the Active Window, But drops FPS to around 10 when play games

Okay, so I've ran into a problem where my hard drive corrupted itself so I lost OBS, and I just fresh installed an SSD and HDD with OBS. I never had framerate issues in the past, even recording up to 60fps. Basically, when I make OBS the active window by clicking on it no frames are lost, however when I click into the game to play and record it goes down to an abysmal 10fps or lower. CPU usage is also low considering, because before I had around 30% but now it's sitting at 3% max. It also says that its Encoder is Overloaded.

What's the deal?
