Question / Help Games FPS drops while streaming

[Raffgard]

Hello all,

So I have been doing some streaming of World of Warships. Whenever I play the game without streaming, my FPS stays high, between 50 and 70, but when I stream my games FPS hangs between 20 and 30. Not sure what is causing the drop in FPS since I feel like my system should be able to handle it.

System Information:

System Model: MS-7681
Processor: Intel Core i7-2600K CPU (Overclocked to 4.00GHz)
Memory: 16384MB RAM
DirectX Version: DirectX 11

Display:
Card name: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 (EVGA FTW)
Display Memory: 4095 MB
Current Mode: 1920 x 1080 (32 bit) (60Hz)

Network:

Any help to fix this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks you!

Play the game and see if it uses a lot of the CPU. If it uses a lot of a certain core, set OBS to ignore that core by setting affinity in Task Manager. It should work better. You will need to re-set that every time you launch OBS.
