Question / Help Best settings? Getting freezes.

I could stream at 720/60 smoothly just the other day but now OBS is telling me I have skipped frames, and I can't solve the issue of the picture hanging every 2-3 seconds (literally freezing, the recorded broadcast looks the same), while the audio continues smoothly. Even 720/30 freezes a little now.

My in game fps while streaming is stable at 180-200. When I tested shadowplay it could stream 720/60fps smoothly to twitch.

Your computer isn't able to keep up with the encoding, as evidenced by the duplicated and skipped frames. You need to lower your settings, probably go to SuperFast preset or 30fps. Or possibly you're running CS:GO at such a high framerate that not enough CPU is left for the encoding process.

This is one of those cases where an i7 CPU handily beats an i5, despite the gamer wisdom than an i5 is fine for gaming (its not as good for gaming and encoding at the same time).

Would it be better if I used NVENC instead? I tried it just now on the NVDefault preset and could stream 720p @ 60 fps smoothly (a little blurry / grainy when moving tho) Or is it just better to stream 720p @ 30 fps + superfast on x264 while capping my CSGO in-game frame rate to something like 129?

Thank you
