Okay so i’m really new to all of this & just bought my first PC. I’ve been testing out live streaming on twitch thru OBS with different settings for the past week & cant seem to find the sweet spot as far as quality goes.

I’m going to list my PC specs & internet speeds below.
If anyone could please guide me to the best/appropriate settings for my specs i would greatly appreciate it!

PC:
i7 6700k
GTX 1060
16GB DDR4 RAM

INTERNET:
58.00 download mbps
5.95 upload mbps

please help!

Unfortunately you will be greatly limited to your upload speed. Make sure you are hardwired (not Wireless) first of all. Your max bitrate is probably going to be something like 3000kbps or 3500kbps.

Optimal Picture Quality settings for this will be somewhere around x264 encoder, 720p @ 30fps, Very Fast preset.
You can bump it up to 60fps with the same settings if you are willing to sacrifice some image quality for better FPS movement. It really depends on what kind of game you are playing and how much FPS you are willing to sacrifice In-Game for picture quality and vice versa.
