Question / Help Fluctuating bitrate and terrible frame drop OUT OF NOWHERE

Hi there,

I am having terrible issues with fluctuating bitrates and terrible frame drops. During my stream and out of nowhere, I had insane bitrate spikes (going from 3500 down to 200, back to 2500, down to 0, back to 3000, etc.). As well, my frames would drop immediately, eventually leading to the stream saying OFFLINE, but OBS still saying I was streaming. This has never happened to me ever while streaming.

Some quick info:

Does anyone know how to fix these fluctuation and inconsistency problems? I never had a problem until last week. I could stream at 720p, 60fps, medium, at 3500 bitrate with 0 dropped frames over 6 hours. Now I can't get close to 2000 before it messes up on start up. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I've also been trying to stream and my frames randomly drop to 0 and then it takes me offline, i have never had this problem before today. Its just randomly started to occur and i have tried to restart but then it happens again.

I have also started having this problem after going from a late 18.X.X build to the latest 19.0.3 build. Had perfect running streams with no dropped frames (or very little) to now crazy fluctuations in bit rate.

I have my bit rate set at 4500kbs and it can fluctuate from 0kbs to 8500kbs at random times.

Very frustrating after having such a stable stream to now having to constantly monitor drop outs to confirm I am still LIVE.
