SLI for encoding and streaming

I got a pretty decent build, but recently, I am getting lower FPS while recording game in ultra graphics.
I play them at solid 60 fps, the OBS viewer shows them at 60FPS, but the saved video file has frame drops and actually look more like 30FPS.

My setup is functional with a SLI setup (a second video card) and I am wondering if it would work properly.
For example, can OBS record with one card and the game on the other?
or can both card do both together and yield better results?

I made sure to record with the nvidia encoder that uses the GPU instead. Would that work?

I currently have a GTX 980ti and could add a second one.

Thank you!
