Posted November 2, 2016 So i started streaming on twitch 2 months ago and everything was working fine. But the last 2 weeks i get immense framedrops (from 180 to 20-30) when there is much action going on, and my Cpu goes to 100% instantly. So I was wondering if anyone can give me some tips what settings i should change. My specs: Mainboard: Gigabyte 970 Gaming Processor: Amd Fx 8320 Graphics Card: Msi R9 380 I am streaming League of Legends on all maxed settings. Current settings are in the Attachments. Thanks for the Help in advance:) Sorry for spelling/grammar mistakes i'm not native Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted November 2, 2016 I say u dont really need 1080p streaming. Even top tier streamers dont do 1080p because it would lag for many vieiwers considering they might not have a good connection.

Posted November 2, 2016 Yeah as per what @Thony is saying, most people get away with 720p max, that might save you a lot on hardware usage. If you were looking for hardware to change out that FX-8320 could probably use a refresh. As for OBS settings I don't see anything aside from resolution that would reduce load on your hardware/connection.

That would tax his cpu even more. And for LoL there is no need for 60fps when u are just starting with streaming.

It would tax is CPU more agreed, but I've never watched or played LoL so I don't know if it benefits from it or not, if it doesn't then, leave it at 30 | CPU: AMD FX 8350 + H100i | GPU: AMD R9 290X + NZXT Kraken | RAM: HyperX Beast 2033 16GB | PSU: EVGA G2 | MOBO: ASRock 970M | | CASE: Corsair Carbide 88R |STORAGE: 1x WD Black | KEYBOARD: Corsair K70 | MOUSE: R.A.T 9 | SOMETIMES LOSING THE BATTLE, MEANS YOU CAN WIN THE WAR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted November 2, 2016 720p at 30FPS is good enough ... most viewer won't able to stream at 1080p smoothly anyways. What the point for 60 fps? 30fps is alright for youtube/streaming. Magical Pineapples
