    OBS Dropping Frames During Recording

    For the past 9 months, I've been trying to resolve an issue where both OBS and Shadowplay drop frames randomly throughout the recording, whether it's recording the desktop or playing a game, despite everything running smoothly at 60 FPS. This problem occurs consistently in every recording and...

    I start streaming, and dropped frames immediately skyrocket to the point where the stream is unwatchable.

    I go live, and my bitrate drops without even going up, and when it does go up, it isn't high enough. I've tried everything from rebooting my router to uninstalling and reinstalling OBS, but nothing is helping. I don't know what to do, or what the cause is. Please tell me what I can do.

    Dropped frames. Whats wrong with PC?

    I've narrowed the issues down to the PC, but I'm not sure what part of it or what needs to be fixed/ replaced. Streaming off my laptop with the same ethernet has 0 dropped frames.
