So I want to be able to stream on OBS, listen to a PS4, talk to someone on teamspeak, whilst having all the audio come through one headset. I understand that a mixer is an option here but I have no idea how to set one up, which one I need etc. I'm pretty sure if I put all the audio into my mixer and monitor it all with my headphones and use the mixer as a microphone with an XLR mic, surely my stream would hear double? If there was a work around in OBS for that, then that would be all well and good except surely my friend in teamspeak would be able to hear all my game sounds also? No idea how professional streamers have this set up but the main thing is that I can use teamspeak as well as listen to my PS4 at the same time. Any information on this would be much appreciated. Thanks

Just to let everyone know, thank you all for your input. I have updated my bios with a flash drive to the latest bios and everything runs smooth as butter

I can have a look in the bios right now, I did however just try it in another lane, still no good.

I'm not overclocking anything currently, how do I find out if the PCIe port is throttling? do you recommend that I put my gpu in another PCI-e slot despite my other PCI-e lanes being 8x and not 16

AMD Ryzen Balanced out of - -power saver -balanced -high performance

Where you see my GPU usage go up is when I loaded into borderlands running around shooting stuff

will test this now and get back to you

It's a fresh install of windows yes, what are you referring to when you say 'power plan'?

nope CPU Isn't running hot either.

This is exactly what I mean, even if it was a 'downgrade' there's no way I should be getting under 60fps on a 5 year old game. By the way this is the same story in a lot of games, I've tried shadow of mordor, bioshock infinite. Still no good.

Yes I am playing at 1080p, the thing is if I load 'GPUtest' it will increase the temps from my GPU from an idle of around 50 up to around 65-70. however when I load a game such as borderlands 2, it doesn't increase in temperature whatsoever

Well actually my main purpose for upgrading is for streaming, which this CPU is far superior for over the 4770k

Ram is running at 2400 Mhz which is it's full speed yes.

So as the title says I'm not getting the most out of my PC. I recently upgraded my motherboard, CPU, and ram. Specs before I upgraded: Asus hero VI LGA 1150 Motherboard i7 4770k 16 GB Ripjaw DDR3 1080ti EVGA Black edition AX760i Corsair PSU 500gb SSD 2tb WD HDD I upgraded to: MSI Carbon Pro Motherboard 16GB DDR4 Corsair LPX Ryzen 7 1700x @4.0 So as the title states my PC is just not living up to it's hardware, I was getting higher frames with my old i7 build than I am with my current new build. For example I was getting 180+ FPS on Doom max settings, now it's gone down to lows of 80 and I'm getting constant frame drop in most other games. One game that stands out a lot for me is Borderlands 2, only running around 70 frames whilst my old build and friends of mine with 1060s and 1070s are getting way more frames than I am, sometimes I'm dropping down to 40 and even lows of 30 on a 5 year old game. I ran 'GPUtest' got a score of 14,000 with anti aliasing on 8x, average fps of 240 whilst my friend with an i5 4500k and a 1070 was getting around 11,000 score and around 180 frames. Things I have already tried to fix this: Resetting the overclock on my CPU messed around with nvidia control panel reinstalling windows reinstalling games (such as borderlands) rolling back GPU drivers I even tried my friends 1070 in my PC and i'm getting the same result; my 1080ti in his PC is working just fine and getting more results than I am. It's worth mentioning that when I rebuilt my PC it was refusing to boot, so I put it down to faulty ram, got a replacement set (of the same corsair LPX 16gb) and it booted. Thanks for reading and if you have any suggestions then please let me know.

We really aren't sure at the moment. It'll be set in different venues each time, we'll be going around the country moving it around a lot. So all venues are going to be different. I think having the lights on will be a good idea specific to the business. I think we might have to spend most of the budget on a projector to be honest, as (with no offence) the business is all about pension planning, and when people are ready to plan out their pension they tend to be older so they might not be able to read information off a cheapy projector that well. Maybe i'm overthinking it. thanks a lot for your feedback though guys. I know a lot of thought has to go into it as I've never done anything like this before
