Depending on the game and depending on the settings I'm playing with in OBS my game will get FPS lag, which, obviously, looks bad, and makes games a pain to play.
I stream with a single PC:
i7 5820k core clock
Nvidia 960 4Gb vram
windows 7
OBS Studio
I decided to try streaming DOOM out. On my old settings (medium preset, 2500 bitrate, 720p30fps) I had no problems, but when I went to watch the stream later, I noticed I really didn't like the way it looked. I could deal with the bitrate causing some weirdness, but the low FPS made it almost like any quick camera movement would cause it to lose track of what was happening. I equated this to streaming a 60 FPS or higher game at 30.
So I tried Changing my settings to Fast preset, 540p60fps at 2200 bitrate. It looks great on stream comparatively. My issue is that my game will drop to 10 fps or less at points and generally the game will have horrible input lag(I guess from Vsync trying to deal with the crazy frame stutter)
What is my issue here, is it as simple as a weak system?
My log from messing around last night(scroll down a ways, there's a lot of tabbing in and out which I assume is what that recurring "gl capture freed" is):https://gist.github.com/94f26ac6a11b6ba0e3227afa0d280f86
