Question / Help OBS Skipping Over Frames

[DreamofAgeOldLife]

Hello, I am currently trying to record using OBS for windows. I keep running into a problem where the game will play just fine, the preview window will play just fine, the studio window will play at about 30 fps, and the actual recording at 15 fps. I've played around with the settings to no avail, even moving to the Nvidia encoder to take the strain off my CPU. Nothing is working and I don't know if its the program itself or if I'm missing something.

My specs are:
Intel i5-3470 Quad Core
4x2gb RAM
Nvidia GT 730 Low Profile
500gb SATA HDD
240w HP PSU (Very wonky and seemingly extremely modified so as to only be applicable to the PC's motherboard.)

Its a stock HP 8300 Compaq Elite minus the Nvidia card. I've tried running the bitrate into the sky and, afterwards, into the ground to a very miniscule effect. All help is appreciated!

11:44:10.933: Output 'adv_file_output': Number of lagged frames due to rendering lag/stalls: 1885 (51.1%)

You're overloading your GPU which the GT 730 is not designed to do that well regardless of settings on OBS. You'll have to lower the in-game graphics/resolution and/or cap the FPS for the game.

Thanks man. I wouldn't have ever picked up on that.
Much love for the simple answer.

Okay, so I restarted the recording on 50% graphics and looked at the log file. Despite recording the entire 60 fps (as far as I could see) it gave me the same lagged frame percentage. Normal? Wrong log? I'm a little confused.
