i have a rtx 2080, a i7-8700, and on streamlabs obs anytime i use window capture my game feels choppy, but i still have 400+ fps in a low power io game, it completely ruins the experience and ive had that problem for as long as i can remember and have never found a working fix, im considering forking over a wad of cash and using an elgato with my laptop.
CPU: i7-8700 3.20ghz
Motherboard:B360m Extreme
Ram:xpg 2x-8gb
SSD/HDD:samsung 250gb ssd, seagate 2x 2tb
GPU:rtx 2080
PSU:corsair 850w 80+ gold
Chassis: not sure
OS: windows
streamlabs obs settings:
Encoder: x264, nvenc also has the same issue
Bitrate: 3000
most cpu and gpu settings set on veryfast (lowering these settings also doesnt fix the problem)
process priority: above normal
game: Krunker
games that i can use game capture for, do not have the problem, only when im playing a game where window capture is my only option

Mention the game you're using and the settings you've chosen for OBS.
updated the post, hope that helps you figure out what could be the issue
