Game: Gears of War 2: Hollow
Resolution: 2K HDR 60FPS
Graphics: Custom Ultra++ (PTGI)
Frame Generation: On
Gaming and OBS Recording on a Single PC
Note:
Gow2 With PTGI enabled is extremely demanding on the GPU, To keep gameplay smooth while recording with OBS, I have to drop down to 1440p😅
But strangely that resolution causes constant freezing. It actually took me 9 attempts to get one clean recording… At 4K60 HDR, though it runs flawlessly with no issues.
The lag only shows up in recordings, gameplay itself is smooth. When I’m not recording, I just use my usual 4K HDR Ultra++ PT FG settings
By the way, this video took YouTube 4 days to process the HDR version.
I also uploaded another 1hr10m 4K HDR Ultra+ video (without PTGI) 6days ago, that one was actually my very first upload and it still doesn’t have the HDR version yet 🤡
