I have tried to record some gameplay multiple times using OBS but the video ends up being below 1 FPS in framerate, only showing 3 or 4 images during a 15 second recording. Am I not using the right settings? Is there a way to fix this or do I simply need more powerful hardware to be able to record? My in-game settings are already as low as they possibly can be.
