I am looking at getting one so that I have no overhead when recording videos and livestreaming, since I seem to be doing both more and more often.
I think a capture card is going to be a good investment.
It claims to have full Linux support.
So I assume on Linux it *might* work with OBS? So I don't understand what overhead this will nullify. Unless you're using a different computer to do the encoding. Doesn't the NVENC encoder take care of that?
But I don't know squat about all this stuff, so please correct me if I'm missing something.

i am still using just SimpleScreenRecorder with nvenc
theres small performance loss though, its mostly just few frames per second (depends what game), but it often makes the video output stutter, like it doesnt run smooth, thats when the game framerate and recording framerate have bigger difference, when they match up it comes out pretty smooth.
