Alright so i play fortnite and stream it occasionally due to terrible quality and bad responsiveness. My specs are

ryzen 2600 3.7ghz

8gb ddr4 2866mhz 

rx 570 oc

240gb SSD + 1tb 7200rpm

500w psu 

i usually play all low settings to get max fps which is 160-220 and usually goes down to 35-50 when I jump out the battle bus. I hate amd for that :/ 

but when I fire up obs and use the 

x264 encoder at the veryfast preset it tends to drop me to 70-120fps but it feels sluggish and my stream looks ok but has laggy moments. My bitrate is 10,000 and I’ve tried 5000,6000, 8000, 9000 no difference in performance just lower video quality. I stream in 1080p btw why is this happening? 

My cpu usage is 70% and my gpu is 50-70% my ram is 85% 

blunty a youtuber who reviews pc parts was able to run fortnite at 120+fps while streaming with a ryzen 2600x at 1080p fast preset just fine I want to get the performance I paid for

All of the Battle Royale games struggle when jumping out of X vehicle, even CS does.

That being said, streaming is hard on CPU usage. I'd recommend trying 720p60 if you're doing 1080p60 streaming, or GPU-based encoding if you're doing 1080p at 30fps.

How is blunty able to stream 1080p60 with 70% usage and I have the same usage on lower settings with lag

What is your upload speed and which service you stream to? Twitch has 6000kbps limit for non-partners, so doing 1080p60 isn't the best thing. You should try with 720p60 and use something like 3500kbps bitrate. As for hardware, your RAM isn't the best choice with Ryzen. I think 3200MHz is the sweetspot in price/performance.

My upload is 30mb and I stream on YouTube at 15,000 as 6,000 wasn’t the best and increasing bitrate didn’t affect fps
