Question / Help What encoder should I use? Bad CPU, really good GPU and internet connection

What the title says, I have tried streaming the game World of Warcraft using NVIDIA NVENC encoder and tried different settings and bitrate. The result is my game is not lagging at all, I have everything set to ultra but my stream says "Taking too long to encode..." and the stream looks like crap and skipping all the time.

Internet connection: 100/100 FIBER
GPU: GeForce GTX 750 ti
CPU: Intel Core i5-2320 3.00 GHz

I haven't tried any other encoder, I remember doing the default one (x264) a long time ago and I don't think my CPU could handle giving a watchable quality and non-laggy gameplay for me, and I have never ever tried Quick Sync whatever that is.

I thought that now when I have this new graphics card that is really good and gives me the NVIDIA NVENC option I could try streaming. I don't know how I'd set up everything so most of the performance goes through the GPU instead of my crappy CPU. Could you guys help me giving me the max results my computer can handle? If theres more information you need just ask!

Thank you in advance letting me use your time to help me!
