cpu

Hi all ! I recently restored a clean version of my streaming PC. Since then I'm getting high CPU usage on a random basis. Let me explain : Sometimes I spend hours livestreaming (NVENC) + recording (x264) without a hitch. Sometimes I just boot up OBS, not even going live, to find my usual 10%...

So when I have another source open (one without the animated overlay) at idle without doing anything, obs is usually 2%, However when I switch to the source with the animated overlay, it spikes up to 20% on idle only. I tried streaming with both sources, I had no problems nor lag when I wasn't...

I have a second PC for streaming and I am not sure if my CPU is doing the best it can when I've been testing. I've noticed people on other forums get a higher number on the CPU usage, why can't I? Is this bad for me? The output (on Twitch) seems to be laggy and somewhat blurry as well. Anybody...

Hello everybody. I have a pc with following specs: I7 920 Quad Core processor, 16 GB DDR3 Ram, and GTX1050ti 4GB. Now the problem is, that on this PC (using elgato Camlink 4K) I can only receive HD output, and that with a high latency. When switching HDMI out (on camera) to full 4K, the screen...

My Setup now is not the best: i5-2500k | Gtx 1050ti | 16gb ddr3 RAM the thing is, because i can not spend that much, i‘m not sure what i should upgrade first. My thoughts are to upgrade the GPU first, because i use the new NVENC to stream and have room for my CPU to do the rest. The Stream...

Hi everyone, I am getting a second computer that is just for streaming. I wanted to include the HD60pro in the build and wanted to know if an i5-10400 or even an i5-9400 was a good CPU to achieve a smooth 1080p 60fps stream. The GPU that is in there currently is an HD 6670, I was told that...

Hello, I've recently started using OBS Studio to capture Minecraft for my YouTube channel.

Hey everyone, In recent months I've encountered an issue I hope you guys can help me solve. As the title suggests, while I stream random CPU spikes (spike I determined by OBS's monitor - normally fluctuates between 5-7% but with these even reaches 20%) lasting 5-6 seconds will make my stream...

I've been trying to record some games using obs, however the video is coming out very choppy and low framerate. I think this is due to a low cpu allocation to OBS. I'm running a i5-10600k and obs is using ~6% atm. I've tryed running OBS as administrator and i've turned off windows game mode...

Got a quick question, I got a i5 7500 with an RX 580 with sufficient ram and such but my recordings and streams are either terrible quality or dropping frames for a whole second at times, what’s the bottleneck here? Before you immediately claim “i5 bad” it was a pretty decent quad core i5 when...
