Hi, I'm looking for the best OBS settings for a low end system.
Currently I am a windows 10 user on an Intel pentium with Intel hd graphics.
I can get 100+ fps in mc java thanks to mods, I tried recording using another program called bandicam, but someone said I should try experimenting with OBS.
Anyways, I'm going to install OBS tomorrow.
Here is my full specs:
Intel pentium n3700(yes it's old) 4 core 4 thread.
Kingston a400 250gb sata3 ssd and a 500gb hdd.
8gb ram.
Now I am a budget(very) gamer.
So I am wondering what settings I should use to at least get a smooth 30 or so fps on OBS, thanks for any help, I am also asking because I am currently unable to buy a new PC, so yea.

there are LOTS of threads on this same topic, do a search

What you need to determine is whether your system supports QuickSync, and if yes, to configure OBS to use it
Otherwise, stick to basic auto-config
keep your base and output resolution the same
don't use Studio Mode (2X rendering)
avoid filters/effects, etc until you determine your system's limits
