So i recently upgraded a view things in my PC to try and obtain a good 720p 60fps stream of a couple games. The main game would be dota 2 but i also stream fez and borderlands 2. Unfortunately I can't seem to get a even a decent quality stream to run with my setup. I have a HD Radeon 7970 6GB and a HD Radeon 7970 3GB crossfired.

Here is the log. Thank you for any help and note the 100% frame lag.

You are using monitor capture with Aero enabled in Windows 7, which due to a limitation with Windows itself will always produce results like these. Monitor capture is only fast in Windows 8, and even then it's the slowest of all the different capture methods.

If you absolutely need to use monitor capture in Windows 7, you have to turn Aero off. I believe there's even a warning message that pops up when you try to add a monitor capture source with Aero on that instructs you to do exactly that.

If you don't know what Aero is, it's basically the "transparent glass" theme in Windows 7/Vista, switching to Windows Basic or Classic will get you better monitor capture performance, but it will still be quite a bit of load when capturing at high resolutions, since it has to be done 100% in software.
