Hello, i have high encoding problem. Even if i try to stream with 500 bit rate only and lowest settings on game i still get high encoding, or high cpu usage or smth. I have Intel I-5 4460 (which is really good processor), gtx 660 OC, and pretty good internet connection aswell. Any help? Suggestions?

EDIT: I have literally tried everything.

Could you post a current log file? The posted logs are a few weeks old and they contain a lot of variations in how you're settings things up (troubleshooting I presume). Restart OBS to create an empty log file, stream/record for a few minutes, then use the Help > Log Files menu to "Upload Current Log" and post the link here. That way we can see how things are set up now and not back in the middle of February.

Start by connecting both monitors to your GTX 660. OBS will experience serious performance issues if it's running on a different GPU than what's being captured.

Be sure to enable some kind of FPS limiter, whether it's vsync or the fps_max cvar in CS:GO or something else. Running at a super high frame rate sucks up a lot of extra resources and OBS needs some too.

Downscale to 1280x720, it will look a lot better than 1080p in high motion games and perform better on your i5 too.

Once you've done that, test again and post an updated log if things still perform poorly.
