I have never overclocked before, so that would be an experiment by itself. I would save roughly 50 euros by taking the 2700, but I would have to get a better cooler right? So that would drive the cost up again. Thank you for your help anyway!

Hi everyone, I would like to start with streaming on twitch. Now I have quite a reasonable pc with some older parts and some fairly new parts. Now was my question to you folks if I should replace some pc parts or/ and if the parts I suggest are good to use for streaming and if they are a good replacement for what I have. Right now my pc rig looks like this: CPU; i7-3770 (no K version) MOBO: I dont really know, its an aftermarket model that came out of an old Medion pc RAM 16 GB DDR3 GPU: GTX 1070ti MSI PSU: Seasonic 750 Watt Gold Now I was considering to replace the CPU, MOBO and RAM with the following: CPU: Ryzen 7 2700X MOBO ASUS Prime X470-PRO (or something else within the same price range (130-170 euros), I'm open for suggestions RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4 16GB 3200MHZ I kinda have a budget as well. I would like to spend no more than 800 euros. Thank you all for your help and time! -Hyrum

I think I have figured it out. The game I was testing with was Rainbow Six Siege. I noticed that R6 is very unusually heavy on the CPU. R6 is apparently optimised to use multiple CPU cores which is difficult for my CPU since it's only a quad core. Do you guys have any other idea to tackle that problem? Or should I just get a new CPU with a higher core count?

Have you had some time yet to check it out? also, is there a change that my processor is just not good enough anymore?

Alright I am very lucky with a wife who is still home to pass me some info on to me. So the settings were set up I believe by OBS itself. When I first booted the program it did a auto set up. So this is what it tells me: Output mode: simple Video bitrate: 6000 encoder: NVENC Audio bitrate: 160 Now I can also change the output mode to advance which gives me more options to change things. If I dont touch anything it gives me this info Output mode: advance Encoder: Software x264 Enforce streaming service encoder settings: off Rescale output: on Output resolution: 1920x1080 Rate control: CBR Bitrate: 4000 (I dont know why this all of a sudden changes) Custom buffer size: on buffer size: 2500 Keyframe interval: 2 CPU usage preset: Ultrafast Profile: high Tune: none I hope this gives enough information. Thank you for your help! ps. Sorry for the pictures of a pc screen, my wife doesn’t know how to take screenshots on a pc.

I will have to tell you that later today, because I don’t know them on top of my head. I’m at college right now.

Hello everyone, I’m new to this forum so I hope I post this in the right thing. Anyway, I had a question about Streamlabs OBS. I want to start streaming on twitch and decided to use Streamlabs. Everything seemed fine until I tried to run a test stream and everything was extremely laggy. I had a lot of frame drops and my fps dropped below 30 on the stream while in-game I had no issues. My CPU was roughly on 50-60% usage while streaming so no real stress on it to my opinion. My GPU was also doing fine. So my question is how come it struggles so much and what can I do to fix my low fps rate? this is my spec list: Intel: i7-3770 MOBO: some aftermarket thing, nothing special RAM: 16GB DDR3 GPU: GTX 1070ti internet speed: 30-40 mbps up and down stream Streamlabs and the game I was testing are both installed on my ssd, but I don’t think that would really matter. Thank you for your help and patience with a newbie on this forum. -Hyrum ps. Also let me know if I might have to move this discussion in a different group.
