Question / Help Videoclips are 'laggy' when recorded with OBS Studio.

[Toke]

I hope some of you guys know what I can do, because I've tried everything.

When I try to record something using OBS Studio videoclips I end up with are always laggy. But while I record my gameplay is all fine and I'm over 60fps. If I try and use Shadowplay the videoclips are fine and there's nothing wrong except, when I try to use my microphone there's to much noise from mouse and keyboard etc. And I just wanna use OBS Studio instead. I have been trying multiple settings.

these are my specs:
16GB RAM
1060 6GB
Ryzen 7 1700

Few things first
1> turn off windows' game bar
2> switch to simple output mode, indistinguishable recording quality, FLV format, and either nvenc or the software (x264, low cpu use increased file size) recording encoder.
3> Make sure that nvidia's in-game overlay is OFF when you're trying to use OBS.

Thank you, Harold!
