alright to give some basis to my writing and what ill balancing out i will give out a detailed answer compiling my current setup
-Gaming pc
-Cpu i7 4790k
-Gpu KFA2 Gtx 1070 2gb
-Kingston PC3-10700 2x8gb
-Custom Build
-Streaming !LAPTOP!
-i7 7700HQ
-Gtx 950m
- 16gb ram cant remember manufacturer out the blue, can check if completely necessary
(http://www.userbenchmark.com/System/Asus-X550VXK/51944)
-Capture card : Razer Ripsaw
now for reference ill tell out of a previous stream i made,
i "stress tested" the razer ripsaw for the whole of last week while streaming it had issues which for i am currently rma:ing it and will receive a replacement on friday i will dwell deeper to explaining as i continue on
i am offloading cpu cycles with the laptop streaming to ensure proper gaming quality on my game rig which is why the laptop is streaming but the razer ripsaw suffered the problem of freezing randomly from a timespan of 30 seconds to five minutes to a couple or hours
now the laptop test streams started with an bitrate of varying tests with 3000-4000 bitrate and equivalent buffer size with the cpu preset of medium and downgrading all the way to veryfast i started off with the resolution of base 1920x1080 to 1920x1080@60 and after contacting razer support the only way they advised to give less freezing and stability was by scaling whole output to 1280x720@60 now this is what gave out more stability and gave a bigger timeframe for the freezing part but it did freeze constantly now before people get out to the fact that the ripsaw is a 3.0 usb card i am using the laptop with a modern bios and usb interface on 3.0 as for that i linked the laptop general model etc so this should not be the issue. now with the medium preset the encoding is sitting around 75% cpu usage which is fine at this moment as the laptop is solely for streaming
now i streamed very lightweight games on my gaming pc so the output to the stream content was fluid but the capture card was problematic, unfortunately i do not have log files of the current content but i can link twitch vods for example but i feel theyre a little irrelevant at the moment as i am looking for improvement tips
now on to the gaming rig setup my current most requiring game for streaming is pubg which is simply too heavy for me to output from my gaming rig solely i streamed it out from the pc with the preset of medium and the bitrate of 3000-4000 for test purposes cpu usage became 40% on the 4790k which was fine but pubg suffers from the lack of cpu cycles resulting in a minor fps hit but with a 144hz monitor the performance hit does not support competitive play now i balanced it out all the way to the veryfast preset which gave out the sweetspot for streaming from a single pc while playing pubg but the output quality of my stream is simply too low quality for my quality standards to create content with that being said all input is welcomed
now to add to the capture card setup the card captures the stream to the laptop trough a extended part of my desktop with window capture trough a fitted obs preview window which mirrors the desktop trough the virtual extension from the obs preview to the actual obs on my laptop trough hdmi-usb3.0 now this capture method is used because it is the only form that supports my 144hz gaming setup and this is officially referred to as the method to stream in on official razer forums i take it this is how it would also be done on the avermedia lgx which is by hardware the equivalent of ripsaw. all feedback is constructive and welcomed and i will provide necessary information upon request, as i get the new replacement on friday i will update the thread with everything possible information wise and simply hope my troubles will be fixed with the rma that being said i apologize if my text is a tad bit hard to read as i am not a native english speaking person.
