Hello all. I wanted to ask if I can stream with the following configuration on my Laptop and want to check if this is the problem for my stream, which is - when I stream my stream just misses a lot of frames however I dont get any dropped frames in the OBS program.
CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2450M CPU @ 2.50GHz 2.50GHz
Ram: 8 GB
Video: 1GB memory, AMD Radeon HD 7470M
What exactly is important for streaming smoothly? My internet connection is very good - 20mbps upload. However, streaming on twitch allows up to 3500kbps as far as the OBS program tells me? (which is fine with me)
