I have done some testing and checked how much of my bandwidth is being used while I run a video, stream or game, and its never anything over 50, but when I run a speed test its showing my download speed is down to 600 or so from 930. So idk what that says. And I always run max quality on everything, always have and never had problems. None of this should occur in the first place with 1k download.

So I recently changed my Modem/Router combo because Vodafone bought the company I was using so I setup their new modem and then a tech guy had to come over and "sync" it? Anyways We also upgraded too 1g. I was finding big problems with gaming "WoW" more than anything, I would randomly jump up to 300ms at times and it would get super funky and when I reset my modem it would fix for a time. Also another very strange problem I'm running into is when I run a speed test on Speedtest.net it should show the normal 930down and 50 up, but when I open up a youtube vid on my other monitor and ran the test my download would dumpster to 400-600 but upload stayed at 50. This did not happen when I payed for 500 download, I would do that test many times no matter if I had a game or video going it would never fluctuate that much. My Info. Ethernet cable cat5 Im running with a 1g plan Im connected via ethernet directly to my modem/router combo which is the Homebox FRITZ! Box 6591 My computer is pretty high end. Mobo - Asus Rog Strix z390-E Gaming CPU - i9-9900KF GPU - 2080ti I also did a full recovery on my PC to make sure I didnt have some old windows settings affecting it. So its all fresh. I have never ran into internet probs like this ever. This started as soon as I swapped to their new router which I returned and got the fritz one and its doing the same thing which means its on their end, or my end. I've contacted them multiple times and they assure me everything is normal on their end so im just making sure with the REAL 5 head people on here that its not something on my end. Maybe my windows or network or something is not working well with the 1g speeds? Maybe...idk im out of options at this point.

There are no ethernet connections on the black box in the basement. No way for me to hook directly to it.

Ok so I recently had to change my router because the company I use sent new ones, so I also upgraded to 1g download and 50 up as well. I noticed while gaming my latency on (WoW) randomly shot up to 600ms so I ran speed tests and it was showing 500 download. I did some troubleshooting and I found out when I have everything closed and opened chrome only and ran a speed test it was showing the proper speeds (930 down 50 up). So I testing opening another window and playing a youtube video and running the test at the same time and the download speed shot back down to 500. I tried it with a game open as well and it does the same thing. I called the company and they said the modem and router were out of sync so a guy came over and did that. Now today im doing the tests again and it is doing the same thing. I'm pretty good with most PC stuff but networking is out of my field of knowledge. I flushed everything in CMD and that did not work either. Is this a problem with the new router or is it on my end? If so what should I do to try and test or fix this issue. Thanks in advance.

Not a problem at all man, just glad to throw out a niche solution too anyone else who has to go through the trouble I had to for this very hidden problem. I'm just glad it's all fixed.

Oh sorry about that, was just showing the comparison.

Ok guys so I wanted to come back and inform everyone on my findings. So as you all know my problem was my stream quality at 1080p 60fps did NOT look like what a 2080ti and overclocked i9 9900kf should look like. I posted on many forums and tried every fucking trick/setting in the book. Well... I finally found what the problem was. The problem was GPU tweak 2. I had just gotten an asus 2080ti and wanted to try out their OC program and I kinda noticed the performace wasn't what I expected it to be but I just kinda pushed it off as problems with the games, because I was still pulling a steady 144FPS on ultra on all my games, but it wasn't PERFECT as in CLEAN as in THE SHIT. SO after days of tweaking with my stream settings I finally said fuck it and started from the ground up, this time with my old reliable affair...MSI Afterburner. I OC'd it about the exact same as I did on GPU Tweak 2 with about 150 clock OC and 900 mem. It's running at about 2100mhz as normal. I also backed up my CPU a tad bit and went from 5.1 back too 5.0 "I'm sure this was not a problem for me at all but havn't tested it back at 5.1 yet". First thing I noticed was playing BDO on Ultra settings was a nice smooth 90+ FPS, so i said fuck it and turned my stream on WITH THE SAME SETTINGS AS I HAD, and boom it was a crisp clean 1080p 60fps stream. SO MY WARNING FROM THIS! Do NOT fucking use GPU Tweak 2, Do, Not, Use it. period. Here is a clip of what my stream looks like now "Ignore the camera quality it's a shit 720p and is being replaced soon". *note this is with all the graphics on remastered mode, so it's pretty intense.

Followed your steps, thanks alot.

Just changed a few settings and this time it let me watch the stream in 1080p, this shit seems SO buggy too me.

I was just looking at that right now. I just did another test and it did only show a 720p option, but then I ended it and went too my videos and watched it over again and it had a 1080p option.

I really hope that is the case.

I have tried high quality as well and also have not tried look ahead yet. I have also used inspector and it said everything was perfect. *shrugs

OK...*shew. So I finally re-built my computer and got some huge upgrades. I moved from an I7 4790k with 2 970's in SLI too an- --- Motherboard - Asus Rog Strix x390-E Gaming CPU - i9 9900KF (overclocked too 5.1) GPU - Asus Rog Strix 2080TI OC (running at 2020-2050mhz) RAM - 16gb of Corsair Dominator Plat. RGB 3200mhz (overclocked too 3500mhz) --- My Internet Speeds Download - 390-420 Upload - 19-20 --- Monitors setup- I run with 2 Acer Predator 24 inch G-Sync monitors that run at 144hz. I also have a big TV above that is there for random things that runs at 60hz. My problems- I used to be able to stream on my old setup with a very clean crisp 1080p 60fps. That was about a year or 2 ago so I'm not sure if alot has changed or not. Now for some reason with the same internet and upgraded parts I can't even stream at 720p at 30fps without it being grainy as hell. Now i'm no expert but that doesn't sound right. I have troubleshot every component as well as Windows 10 and made sure every single thing is running as smooth as possible and windows is up to date and there is nothing weird going on at all. There is one thing I have not been able to test yet and that is my Ethernet cable, it is very old and have had it for YEARS and I just ordered a Cat 7 cable hoping too god that does something (but probably not). I just feel like there is someting going on with a setting SOMEWHERE either on OBS or maybe in my NIVIDIA settings that is fucking me with streaming. Here I will link a current video of my stream and what it looks like. https://obsproject.com/logs/MS_6KNXIEcYneIAL I have also tried 720p at 30-60fps with bitrates from 6000-10000. I have also done the same with 1080p. --- Some of the settings I used- Encoder NVENC (new) and I've also tried running it with x264. Ive tried running it with enforce stream service encoder as well as with it off. I've tried every range of bitrates. I've tried different quality presets. I've tried all resolutions and FPS as well as taking off the downscale filter. I'm out of options...I'm not usually the type of person who needs help with these kinds of things, usually I can troubleshoot it myself but there must be something I'm missing. I just need to know if maybe I need to just restore my computer and start from scratch or if my computer really just is shit for streaming...which for that money I sure hope not. if I could stream on shit from 2 gens ago I would hope this could hold up too basic streaming too... Thanks for any help at all...

Well I was just pressing the menu buttons at the bottom and it randomly came back on. I do not feel as if it is safe though. If anyone has any info on white screening please let me know. Thank you.

So I usually run a 3 monitor setup including my TV up top, I use 2 Acer XB241H G-Sync monitors overclocked too 180hz and for the first time my second one has just went full white screen. I have tried everything and whenever I turn it back on it is pure white. I cannot even access the monitor menu's either. Any info would be great.
