I want to record and review my CS:GO gameplay by recording it with OBS. However everytime I hit "Start Recording" My FPS in game gets cut in half and there seems to be slight video lag. I tried several things including enabling and disabling "Limit Frame Capture" in the properties. Halp plz

CSGO is a fairly CPU intensive game. OBS is also CPU intensive.
Soooo, upgrade your CPU?
I mean, there's not much you can do. Perhaps you could try using the GPU for encoding. Then it will stress the GPU more.
