OBS Studio or Nvidia Shadowplay for recording?

[Mr_Venbeer]

Quick question. I tend to use Nvidia DSR in games. Monitor resolution is 1920x1080 but in-game res is 1440p. Nvidia Shadowplay works great with it, but I want to transition onto OBS as it has more customisation. Are there any OBS recording settings I can use that performs close to Shadowplay? (e.g. using NVENC H.264) Or should I just stick with Shadowplay?
NOTE: Recording at 1080p 60 FPS. 1440p is also an option but it's mostly for YouTube anyways.

Specs:
- i7-6700 3.4Ghz
- 8GB DDR4 2133
- ASUS Strix GTX 980
- 120GB SSD (OS)
- 1TB 7200rpm

Thanks in advance.

I personally use obs as it is more reliable, does not need to be updated very often and you can do effect on the spot too. I found an in depth discussion about this on Reddit if this would interest you: https://www.reddit.com/r/Twitch/comments/3708cv/obs_or_shadowplay/

I definitely will be using OBS for live streaming, but for offline gameplay I'm currently using Shadowplay (until I find settings on OBS to match the performance of Shadowplay)
