Question / Help Very low quality when trying to record

I’m trying to record on obs studio, my monitor is 1440p, so I went to the setup wizard and put that in and it should set up. I went to settings and the input/canvas settings was 1440p, but the output/scaled was 1080p, so I changed it to 1440p. My fos is set to 60. My audio is 48khz. When I try to record the video turns out to be very laggy, like it looks like it’s at 5fps, my bitrate was 2500kbps, so I though that was the problem. I increased it and there’s no change. I finally had it at 10000kbps and nothing changed so I don’t think that is it. There’s nothing else I can think of that could be the problem. If possible, I want to record at 120hz so I can slow footage down without decreasing the frame rate, so anything I should change to make that happen after a fix?

Here is my log:

you can't record with your cpu at that settings.
maybe nvenc can do 1440p at 120 fps but your cpu can clearly not and you have to change to a quality based bitrate setting and not use a fixed bitrate.

Thanks! So 60hz it is, can I still run it at 1440p? Could I change to output/scaled resolution to 1440p and not run Into the same problem again?

Your machine is not able to do this. You're attempting to record 1440p60 in a single PC configuration and you are overloading both your CPU and GPU significantly.
