Hey!
My current build is...
AMD A10 APU OC to 4.4ghz
8 gig Kingston HyperX Savage DDR3 2400
Asus GTX 970 Turbo
And i'm running into a ton of issues while trying to stream on one PC with OBS. OBS is using 20-55% of my CPU at any time, and it leads me to not being able to play games on my PC while streaming. I also stream with an Elgato HD Cap Card from my PS4, and that generally is no issue, unless i try to watch another stream while i'm streaming, Ex. Last night i was streaming Destiny from the PS4, had my dashboard open, twitchalerts and chat, 1 other stream, and i was hitting high encoding issues. I am also only streaming at 616p @ 30 FPS (as i'm not partnered i heard there wasn't much downfall to this).
Unfortunately i am not in a position to purchase a new motherboard and processor right now (will be going intel ASAP), i do however have another PC my wife used to game with. I was thinking my best option would be to split the load between 2 pcs, the other specs are..
i5 2320 @ 3.00GHz
8 Gigs of ram
GTX 650 Ti
I know the specs aren't amazing, but I'm hoping just shifting the load to that PC, (still going in 616p) will be no problem at all, since nothing else will be running on the computer. i will set up Audio Repeater software, but my main question, is will this improve my problem, at least on a short term basis? Or is this going to be more of a headache than its worth?
Any advice would be very appreciated! Thank you!
