I'm looking to stream in the best quality possible, but I also want my viewers to be able to read my abilities and what not.

Verizon in Texas...

240/360 or max 480p resolution
bitrate of I dunno, less than 500 and for audio the lowest you can select.

oh and you did not mention which game you play, so I dunno if anyone will be able to read anything ;(
I would really recommend to upgrade your internet upload speed!

Thanks for the quick reply. I'm trying to stream Blade and Soul. Which sucks because I'm playing on 1080p and on very good settings, and I want my viewers to experience that... But I'm guessing it's my Upload speed thats holding me back... :(

Yea ;/ there is unfortunately a minimum needed to reach a certain quality. Even the biggest and most powerful cpu wouldnt get you around that rock by using compression or something. You will at some point always need more bitrate.

Darn, guess I'll have to wait a couple years or something. In the middle of Texas, internet only gets so good with the right price. Anything over 2up is 50 bucks a mb. *depression*
