30FPS on 3070 while Streaming Elden Ring

[WulfGang]

Hello there,

I use Stream Labs to stream. When I play Elden Ring I usually get 60FPS all on high setting and 1440p no problem. 
But when I tried streaming the game, it drops me to 30FPS and stays there. Even if i put my setting to 1080p and on all low settings. So think I don't think its a GPU problem here.
I also found on google "Although Elden Ring can use more than 3-4 CPU threads, it relies heavily on only one. This basically means that your CPU's per-core performance will bottleneck you."
Is it possible to select the CPU threads for Elden Ring to use and also select what Stream Labs use?

Like 30.0 all the time or does it vary and if so by how much?  I’m asking because of possible frame caps.  Frame caps are often 30 or 60 auto.  Also worth looking at is how hard the video card is running if it’s pushing that 30fps at under 99% there may be some sort of blockage.

the FPS can go up or down depending on where i am in the world, while inside it can go up until 40 FPS but goes back down again and could stay at 35 FPS, depending on how many or how few things there are in the screen. But while i'm on the open world it stays 30 FPS but it would have dips down to 20 FPS often. as for the video card it would stay on the range of 50-70% both streaming and not streaming, although while streaming it has more often higher percentage than while not streaming.

So it’s a wifi signal thing.  To get that 60 you might need to start dragging an Ethernet cable around.

I had cable internet for a while.  The way it worked in my area is they had subnets with whole neighborhoods on them.  So if you’ve got a neighbor who recently became a spammer or something it could affect it.  Does it vary by time of day?  If it’s changing by your location though the bottle neck is the wifi.

i'm not sure if i could change location unfortunately, the router is like 2-3 meter away and im already on cable. but this problem with the 30fps only really happens when im streaming. when I start the game and play a in the open world or even fight a boss it would be fine and stays at 60fps. The moment I click on the Start Stream button and stream starts it drastically goes down and stays on the 30 fps range.
