Question / Help CS:GO streaming 300stable fps

[darken777]

Hi,

I want to stream cs at 720p 60fps while keeping stable 280-300(lock) fps. My i7 6700k (4.4) and GTX 960gb only handled to stream at 180-220fps which is a bit too low for me. Would a upgrade to GTX1080 help(I chose 1080 as investment for future gaming). I know that cs is CPU depended game but would a gpu upgrade help? Any suggestions?

Big thanks,
darken

You don't need that much FPS in the game. Cap it at your monitor's refresh rate. Anything over that is wasted.

If you want stable 280-300 fps, you wanna go for NVIDIA encoder instead of x264.I agree with Fenrir, you don't need that much fps, unless you are on 240hz monitor.
Good luck!

Any guidelines to setup NVIDIA encoder? I am pretty sure I need 300 stable fps. Check this out might learn something new: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hjWSRTYV8e0 :)

Go to OBS navigate to Encoding / Nvidia NVENC and check it.Then type fps_max 0 in CSGO console.Hope this helps!

This guy is an idiot, and provides absolutely no data outside his own personal placebo perceptions and a very rudimentary understanding on how the video pipeline works.

You don't need anything over your monitor's refresh rate.

Thanks! Basically with NVENC encoder streaming is more GPU intensive then CPU, right?

I fully respect your opinion but even when I played with old 60hz monitor I could feel difference between 100 and 200 fps, same as I can feel 200-300fps range difference, for me its not placebo and I am pretty sure about it.
