Question / Help [Help] Streaming CSGO

[JimmyK]

Hi guys,

I've been trying to stream CSGO for quite sometime and it just doesn't work, I really need some help.
The problem is that my fps drops are too severe and makes the game no fun. (drops to 80/60)

Can you provide a log of a CS:GO streaming attempt? That log file was streaming Rust. However, I will say that you are probably going to want to downscale your streaming resolution. That CPU is going to struggle to do 1680x1050 at 30FPS while gaming. A 1.5 downscale should be sufficient, though.

I just played pretty long streaming 1280x720, it didn't feel like there was a lot of fps loss but there still was... which I hope to get rid of :(

First, try turning off the obs preview window by right-clicking the preview screen in OBS and disabling it.

Second, hm, not sure. The system feels a little weak, but should really be able to handle 720p 30fps at least I think. You might want to experiment with more downscale in video settings to see if it alters your results or not.

That system could stream 720p no problem imo, as long as it wasn't doing anything else at the same time - like running a game. If you're trying to stream at 720p and play CS GO simultaneously, you're most definitely going to encounter fps loss in game.
