To those wonderful souls who thrive on helping others in forums like this, I beseech your guidance.

In my pursuit of unleashing the full potential of my powerful iMac for streaming with OBS, I’ve encountered an enigma that calls for your expertise. Despite diligently setting OBS to 60fps, both my Mac’s display and OBS stats seem to lead me astray. They confidently claim to be recording at 60fps, but the glaring reality reveals a choppiness that mirrors a mere 30fps playback.

Allow me to present a telling test to substantiate my struggle: whenever I roll credits on my screen, I glance at my TV where the Xbox gracefully displays the smooth 60fps content. However, as I divert my attention back to my Mac screen, which boldly proclaims 60fps, I am disheartened by the undeniable truth of its choppy and lackluster 30fps appearance.

Fellow forum members, I humbly reach out to you, seeking your wisdom and insights to decode this perplexing riddle. Can you shed light on this discrepancy and help me unveil the true potential of my iMac? I eagerly embrace any suggestions, tweaks, or revelations that may pave the way for a seamless 60fps streaming experience, which has become the passion I relentlessly pursue.

Your knowledge and expertise are invaluable to me, and I am ready to provide any necessary log files or additional information to aid in diagnosing this mystery. Your assistance will not only uplift my spirits but also empower countless others who may face similar challenges.

With gratitude and anticipation,
