Question / Help Can't seem to stream even at 720p 30fps. Please help.

Hi everyone I am having problems with streaming.
My download speed is 113 upload is 7.42, which is usually around 11 or 12.
I have an i5 3570k Overclocked to 4.3GHz, a GTX 980, 8GB of Corsair Vengeance Pro DDR3 1866Mhz,
I can record at 1080p 60fps with 15000bitrate on very fast on x264
But whenever I try to stream even at 720p 60fps 2500-3000bitrate, its choppy and looks bad and buffers.
I can barely even stream at 720p 30fps with 2000-2500bitrate, it still looks choppy and bad.
What am I doing wrong here? I know that I have a powerful system so what gives?
I had to turn off buffering for the recording to even work for local recording.
I don't understand what I'm doing wrong

Recording isnt the same as streaming to twitch. Aim for 720p 60/30fps and around 3000kbps or lower. and that cpu isnt a power house... And if youre recording and streaming at the same time youre definitely killing your cpu.

Go to the help section on twitch for how to set up OBS http://help.twitch.tv/customer/en/portal/articles/1262922-open-broadcaster-software follow it and set it to 720 30fps with 2500kbps. Do a test stream without recording. And i bet it will work perfect.

Thats the stream up and running at least.
