Start with the following:
1. The Hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling ("HAGS") feature in Windows is currently known to cause performance and capture issues with OBS, games and overlay tools. It's an experimental feature and we recommend disabling it via these instructions.
2. In Windows, we recommend that "Game Mode" be enabled. Game Mode can be enabled via the Windows 10 "Settings" app, under Gaming > Game Mode.
3. Display and Game Capture Sources interfere with each other. NEVER put them in the same scene (Recording Blank Display, Main Monitor and Main Monitor V). Only use Display Capture if you need to capture Windows stuff such as desktop and Start menu, otherwise remove it from your scenes.
4. Multiple Game Capture sources are usually not needed, and can sometimes interfere with each other (scene Recording Blank Display). You can use the same Game Capture for all your games. If you change games often, try out the hotkey mode, which lets you press a key to select your active game. If you play games in fullscreen, use 'Capture any fullscreen application' mode.
5. Your GPU is maxed out and OBS can't render and encode scenes fast enough (0.1% of the time). Running a game without vertical sync or a frame rate limiter will frequently cause performance issues with OBS because your GPU will be maxed out. OBS requires a little GPU to render your scene.
I Enable V/G-sync or set a reasonable frame rate limit (165, 120, 60) that your GPU can handle without hitting 100% usage.
II If that's not enough you may also need to turn down some of the video quality options in the game. If you are experiencing issues in general while using OBS, your GPU may be overloaded for the settings you are trying to use.
III Set Multipass Mode to Single Pass and disable Look-ahead and Psycho Visual Tuning as those all use additional GPU.
IV Please check our guide for ideas why this may be happening, and steps you can take to correct it: GPU Overload Issues.
Please be aware that having the YUV Color range set to "Full" will cause playback issues in certain browsers and on various video platforms. Shadows, highlights and color will look off. In OBS, go to "Settings -> Advanced" and set "YUV Color Range" back to "Limited".
