Question / Help Setting for Acer Predator Helios 300

[Harembe21]

Hi, I have my Acer Predator Helios 300, with GTX1060. I want to use a recording software to record my gameplay so I downloaded this OBS. I have a problem that whenever I am using this to record my gameplay, it was so lagging that I can't even play the game properly with this software. Can u guy help me with the setting, tips and how to record the gameplay with this software without lagging?

hey there. we need you to post one of your stream logs. Do this by opening OBS, and clicking (Help > Log Files > Upload Last Log File). Copy that link and paste it on your post!

I see 1 large issue so far. It is that OBS is not using your GPU as its Video Adapter. It is using integrated graphics. Try streaming while playing a game, and get a screenshot of your task manager

I want to use it for recording, how to use it without having lag?

Try recording while playing a game, and get a screenshot of your task manager. If you don't want lag, just do as I say :)

It doesn't seem like the game was playing, as the usage is at 0.5% GPU. From what it looks like, OBS is actually ignoring your GPU, and not using it at all.
