I use OBS but there is another option for those with Nvidia GPUs to use the GPU (Nvidia NVENC) for recording or whatever (a bit like ShadowPlay) instead of the CPU (x264) - switching to the Nvidia option allowed me to record with almost no frame loss.

Doesn't AMD GPUs have something similar? If it does, it would be under "encoding settings".

E: Nvm, this won't really be of use if you just want full screen captures. This is only useful if you find yourself lagging with the x264 option.

I'll keep that in mind. RuneScape fullscreen is absolute garbage though, I only use it because I want to record in 1080p.

x264 encoding hits your cpu VERY hard, we learnt that when my friends computer was just like "you want me to play a game AND encode the stream? nooooope" and made everything crash.

You know you could just maximise the window, set OBS to record 1920x1080 anyway, and it'll just add a black bar to the bottom to fill it to 1080p - Which tends to be just covered by the YouTube controls anyway.
