Hi,I have had a persistent issue since building my PC: my recordings ( mostly minecraft) never look visually smooth, even with 60 FPS and no lag.

Current PC specs:
CPU: Intel Core Ultra 9 285K
GPU: ASUS TUF RTX 5080
RAM: 32 GB DDR5
Motherboard: ASUS TUF Gaming Pro z890 wifi
PSU: 850W dark power 13 be quite
Monitors: 1x 4K monitor + 1x 1440p monitor (LG ultraGear both)
Storage: 4 TB Gen4 NVMe

At first, I thought it was a setting issue: bitrate, encoder, OBS settings, Minecraft settings...
