Hi guys, im new to streaming, recently got a elgato hd60 to stream my XB1 games, i stream on mixer, at first i was using the stream software built into my console and didn't have any lag at all, but i just set my stream up with obs today, when i first open the studio, i have aprox 0.5sec lag which is expected, and every thing seems fine, but as soon as i start streaming with in 1 min of the stream starting some times 20secs i end up with a 5 seond delay on my pc screen, i am only streaming 30fps at 2500 bitrate, can some one tell me if i need a better laptop with a better cpu please? i don't get a warning saying high cpu usage but my laptop is really slow when streaming, my laptop is a HP Probook, and the processor is a intel core i3 7100U @ 2.40Ghz - 2.40Ghz, 4GB ram, and 500GB HDD, here is a link to one of my log files on pastebin: https://pastebin.com/rjeiZ53h
PS: not sure if i have all of my settings correct, please tell me if i don't, and please tell me how and what to change, any help is greatly appreciated, if it is a new laptop i will need, can some one please go on PC World (UK website) and find me the cheapest laptop i would be able to get what will be able to handle streaming, once again i really do appreciate any help/advice from you guys, kind regards jordan!
-I would prefer to not have to buy a new laptop, but if it has to be done it has to be done i guess!
