How To Fix Nvenc Encoder Overload in OBS Studio + Best Quality Settings 2020!

After I built my new streaming computer I started using the new Nvenc encoder to livestream instead of my CPU, however, I kept getting the error encoder overload from OBS Studio.

I searched for help on the internet and quickly realized most people had no idea what they were talking about and worse yet, they wanted me to turn the quality of my stream down in order to fix the issue.

Needless to say, none of that helped and the fix was actually quite simple and still allowed me to max out all the quality settings inside OBS Studio for my livestream!

Thanks for the tips. I need to try this out in OBS. I currently am running into an nvenc issue in Streamlabs when trying to run Warzone but unchanged settings works great for Sea of Thieves. This is my first pc build so just learning as I go. Thank you again for the help!

Dude... thanks a lot.. for real tho..
Ur "Run OBS as Administrators" Solution works like a charm.
I already watch other videos, changing bitrate, profile, key-frame, downscaling, encoder, etx.. None of them work :').
And and thank God i found your video.
