How I FIXED My OBS NVENC Encoding Overload Problem!

My OBS NVENC Encoding Overload problem happened very recently and, whenever it happens, it would lag my livestream and the game to a point that would make the game unplayable.

These past few days, whenever I play and livestream Shroud of the Avatar, I would get massive lag in-game. At first, I thought it was the game messing things up again BUT it doesn't happen when I'm not livestreaming.

That's where and when I noticed the OBS NVENC Encoding Overload. The message would appear whenever the game would start lagging badly. I've searched Google and DuckDuckGo but never found a solution that worked.

Almost all the solutions wanted me to change this and that in my OBS settings but, when I tried THEM, none of them worked. After not giving up, I finally found a solution that worked for me. Again, this solution worked for me but it might not work for you.

What I found out after multiple tries was, running and loading the game first before running OBS stops or prevents the OBS NVENC Encoding Overload problem and, since I've started loading the game first before OBS, I've never encountered the problem again.

So, there you go guys, that is how I fixed my OBS NVENC Encoding Overload problem. Again, this method worked for me but I can't say if it will work for you but do give it a try. Who knows, it might also work for you.
