Hello,

I can't get Fibre at my home, so I switched to AnnexM. My upload is 1.6mb (could improve in the future to maybe 1.8-2.2).
I'm streaming mainly CSGO. Also Dota2, Diablo3, DayZ SA.
My current settings are:

Encoding: Use CBR and Padding, Max Bitrate 1300kbs, AAC at 96.
Video: Downscale 1.75 1096x616. I play CSGO at 1336x768 but when I changed the base resolution to that, and downscale from there, it only captures like 60% of my screen...

Advanced: See Attachment.

My Setup is:
i5-4670K at 4.4GHz
GTX 770 Inno3D 2GB
2x4GB 1866MHz Ram

I'm getting around 250 fps while streaming with the faster preset, so there's room for a 'slower' preset if I can sacrifice fps for quality.

Yes, what are the optimal settings for my specific case? Any chance to sacrifice more FPS to gain stream quality? I don't mind like playing with 150 fps as long as their isn't input lag.

With that amount of upstream bandwidth you'd probably be better off downscaling to 480p for high motion games like CS:GO and DayZ. Lower motion games like DotA2 and Diablo 3 would probably be fine at 720p. Experiment with the preset to see how far you can go for a particular game while still getting acceptable performance.

Okay will run more tests.
Are my Advanced Settings optimal right now? Aka Scene Buffering Time, Time interval, opencl=true etc?

Scene buffering time should be left on its default value of 700. OpenCL support can be unstable and offers very little performance gain, and no quality improvement. Profile should be set to "main" when streaming to Twitch. Process priority class should be left on "normal" unless you are trying to solve a specific problem by changing it.

Thank you. The settings I've got are what I have found from googling etc. Some guy on this forum suggested to a guy to Above Normal if you have a good pc and low upload. Also I read somewhere that main is suggested for twitch (supports mobile/tablet formats) but you lose some stream quality from it and I'm trying to squeeze as much as I can for stream quality on 1.6mb upload.
