Question / Help Trying to record off of a NVIDIA 970 GTX, produces terrible quality?

Seriously. Settings screenshots are a complete waste of time and bandwidth, when the log already contains all that information and more that can actually help. Just learn to read a logfile.

He's also using a buffer of 0 with VBR, which tells OBS to disregard the bitrate set and use as much as needed. So no matter if the bitrate is set to 1 or 500000, it's going to ignore it.

Would also not advise using Veryfast on that CPU when trying to record 1080@60. Superfast or Ultrafast could help keep things in check. Unfortunately the log file there was extremely short; the log shown isn't really a representative performance sample. Generally want at least 5-10 minutes of active streaming while in-game. NVENC is an option too, if you're only recording locally and can afford to huck a bucketload of bitrate at it so it doesn't look terrible.

Problem i'm having is no matter what ridiculous bitrate I have it set to the video quality does not change at all. Same goes while i'm using VBR. Assuming this is an issue outside of OBS then? Thanks for the help everyone
