hello i have recently done upgrades to my pc going from a gigabyte fm2 mobo with 8gb ram using the amd a8 6600k processor to a MSI 970 gaming mobo with 32 gb of ram using a AMD fx 8350 8 core processor and now when i stream using my elgato it says 'high encoding cpu usage' when trying to stream using my cpu, so i had a mess around with the settings and used my graphics card instead which is a msi nvidia gt710 (yes i know its bad but its only temporary lol) and it streams fine no encoding problems at all so i was wondering if anyone knows why when i try and use the CPU to stream it comes up with this?
