Question / Help Getting bad streaming performance after GPU upgrade

Hi, I've been streaming for a couple months now. I used to be able to stream on 720p (downscaled) at 60fps with in-game settings on low. I would get 150+ fps.

Recently I upgraded to the GTX 960 SSC, haven't changed anything to a higher setting and I'm getting 100 frames at most now. I've lowered settings, changed multiple settings and so I don't know whats going on.

I believe its the CPU getting bottlenecked but my dad doesn't think so. What is the issue? Specs below.

I've tried tons of solutions and lowering settings but to no avail.
 
Here's my latest log file, which has all of my tinkering with the settings and bitrate, etc.

and then the one before it

Also, I am streaming CS:GO.
might need to flush your driver with DDU then reinstall the latest driver. I know, you probably had an nVidia before, but this is what I would do since you changed video cards out.

Also make sure shadowplay isn't running or even installed if you dont use it. and lately, I've been telling people to disable in-home streaming along with broadcast in steam when you aren't using them.

Code:
NING: Another hook is already present while trying to hook opengl32.dll, hook target is unknown. If you experience crashes, try disabling the other hooking application

ye, the last card was a 650ti boost, I could try that. And shadowplay isn't installed at all

I updated my post btw :D

The main thing is you have encoder lag big time so whatever hook is running , that could be doing it. any game overlay or capture like overwolf will do this as well

i'm lost lol

what do i need to do in this situation? im not using any overlays or anything additonal. I'm just streaming cs:go through OBS

in steam settings, uncheck/disable both in-home streaming and broadcasting. both should have their own tab. this might be your conflict.
 
both of those were turned on, thanks. i'll test it out and let you know if it worked!
still seems to be the same results after disabling both of those.

can anyone help me with this? i was streaming fine before i upgraded my gpu. my next step is to reformat the pc and see how it goes then

Did you uninstall with DDU in safemode, restart then reinstall the proper drivers?
 
i was going to try that but last night i messed with the settings more.

no matter what setting i put on obs, it would still give the same framerate. i downscaled to 480p 30fps and made it basically very low quality and i still got the same amount of frames.
then i didnt downscale at all, made it the highest quality i possibly could, and my frame rate still stayed the same. which was 70-100 on average.

isn't this basically a cpu bottleneck?

No since you are using NVENC this is all video card issues. I would upgrade your drivers as I spoke about before.if you were using x264 then I would say yes, it could be, but you aren't.
