Hello,

I have problem with OBS Studio. It starts few weeks ago and problem still persists. When I start my stream, OBS use about 25% of my GPU core. It will be ok for me but I am streaming via x264 not NVENC. As I say it starts few weeks ago and it couses to drop FPS in OBS, but not in the game..

Example:

I am streaming GTA 5 and have about 100 FPS in game, but in OBS I can see that I am streaming from 10-27 FPS. So I have absolutely playable game, but on the stream game shutters a lot (about 15 fps..). My CPU usage is about 60-70% and again, I am using x264 which uses CPU not GPU. Of course that I have priority of OBS to High. Lot of my friends have same problem.

My pc:

CPU: Intel i7 6700K
GPU: GTX 1060
RAM: 16 GB DDR4
Windwos 10
Using latest OBS Studio x64 version

Thanks a lot for a help!
