Question / Help Choppy/Lag In Game But Good Stream

New Member
Hi,

I'm new to streaming and I've tried using the OBS. The stream comes out good but while streaming the game Tera Online, there is a slight lag (choppy) in game. But when I stop streaming, the game runs smoothly. I read all guidelines and used the configurator for the settings. Can anyone check and see why it's lagging in game. Should it be like that with the PC I have? Any help appreciated, thank you.

MMOs in general tend to bog your system down, and in most cases you have to lower in game settings to account for the extra strain brought on by streaming, even with a beast system.
