first of all the recent log: https://obsproject.com/logs/BDDS0maPSFdYyBYZ

I have huge Encoder problems. When I'm 30-40 minutes into the Stream my whole pc starts to lag because of what I think is a gpu encoder overload. I drop massive frames for like 5-10 seconds. In the task manager you can see the gpu is nearly at 0% usage this time: https://imgur.com/a/pzNXIPX It's like the whole gpu shuts down for 5 seconds.

Tried it with especially Planet Zoo. The gpu load is around 85-90% all the time so not even 100%.

I got a NV_ENC_ERR_INVALID_DEVICE 3 days ago aswell.

Here are my settings.
Driver are unistalled with DDU and the latest driver is installed, didn't help.

Ryzen 7 7800X3D
Palit RTX 4090
32GB DDR5 Ram

1. At least one of your audio devices has a sample rate that doesn't match the rest. This can result in audio drift over time or sound distortion. Check your audio devices in Windows settings (both Playback and Recording) and ensure the Default Format (under Advanced) is consistent. 48000 Hz is recommended.
OBS Sample Rate: 48000 Hz
Microphone (Scarlett 2i2 USB): 44100 Hz
Lautsprecher (Scarlett 2i2 USB): 44100 Hz
[VIRTUAL_AUDIO_DEVICE_PROCESS_LOOPBACK]: 48000 Hz
2. In Windows, we recommend that "Game Mode" be enabled. Game Mode can be enabled via the Windows "Settings" app, under Gaming > Game Mode.
3. Please do not ignore service bitrate limits and change your bitrate to 6000.
4. Contact StreamElements to resolve all of their errors in your log.
4. Your GPU is maxed out and OBS can't render scenes and encode frames fast enough (1.2% of the time). Running a game without vertical/G-sync or a frame rate limiter will frequently cause performance issues with OBS because your GPU will be maxed out. OBS requires a little GPU to render your scene.

Enable V/G-sync or set a reasonable frame rate limit (120, 90, 60, 30) that your GPU can handle without hitting 100% usage.

If that's not enough you may also need to turn down some of the video quality options in the game. If you are experiencing issues in general while using OBS, your GPU may be overloaded for the settings you are trying to use.

Multipass, Look-ahead and Adaptive Quantization all use additional GPU. Disable those in the Output settings.

Please check our guide for ideas why this may be happening, and steps you can take to correct it: GPU Overload Issues.

You may also want to try the Studio Driver. If still having issues, post a new log.
