i have a few questions based on the following hardware:
i7-4790K @ 4GHz
16GB DDR3
GTXTitan X 12GB (900 series, 2 x sli = 24GB VRAM)
inet: 120Mbps DL / 12Mbps UL

i'll be streaming csgo at 1280x720, bicubic with 10Mbps+=BW/RTT=40ms/Quality=100 (non-partnered).

Q1: will 30fps suffice for a FPS (i.e., CS:GO)?
Q2: or should i stream csgo at 60fps?
Q3: what should i set my Video Bitrate at?
Q4: Encoder?

SLI with your processor will greatly reduce system performance.

thank you for your input. what processor would you recommend? i7-7700K or maybe a i7-6800K? i tried disabling sli and running csgo on 1 gpu. fps were not worse, but conversely, fps were not better either.

i can keep sli disabled if OBS Studio runs better that way.

1. Yes, it should be fine.
2. If you have the internet connection to handle it, sure.
3. 3000 for 720p30fps, 4500-6000 for 720p60fps
4. x264 on veryfast

With that processor you have, you need to physically remove the second card.

In order to get the additional pci-e lanes, you would need to go with the 6800K or higher (28+ lane cpus)

it appears i am clueless with regard to pci-e lanes. let's not mention other subjects. time for me to do some research on pci-e lanes.

i want to thank you guys for taking the time to respond and with very helpful information.
