I recently upgraded to an Nvidia RTX 3070 from an AMD 5700XT and have been having issues, which I've tracked down to being Streamlabs OBS filling up my GPU memory. Has anyone else had this issue? It will sit around 1GB of memory used, then after around 10 minutes will start filling up the GPU memory more and more until it's full and starts causing issues.
I've tested this by recording just the task manager window for 30 minutes, which will start with the below:
Then end with the below after 30 minutes before I stopped recording, when it immediately released all the memory:
My setup is plenty strong enough to handle recording / streaming - I've got an AMD 3900X CPU, 32GB RAM, an RTX 3070 and a 3.5GB/s SSD. I never had any issues with my old GPU using Streamlabs, but I've been having issues ever since I upgraded to my new GPU.
I've also tried recording with the same settings in OBS Studio and with Nvidia's own recording software, which work perfectly and don't fill up my GPU memory.
Below are my settings, although I have tried both software and NVENC (old), both of which had the same issues - although the software capture did seem to empty the memory at one point and then it was fine.
