The CPU can't handle 1080p 60fps x264 very fast encoding. Turn off Windows 10 Game DVR and Game Mode, use NVENC instead of x264 and cap the ingame fps so that the GPU is not running at >95% load.

But how do I do all of those things?

Ok after some research I found out how to do those things and I tried recording but it is still laggy here's the new log:

Encoder overload.
General Performance and Encoding Issues
If turning off game mode alone doesn't solve the rendering lag, you can either cap your in-game framerate and/or target 720p60 or 1080p30 instead. Either of those methods would likely address both the GPU and CPU overload.
However you should probably be using the NVENC encoder instead anyway as it will remove all the CPU load for encoding purposes.

Wait does Vsync also help with the GPU overload?
