I've been messing around with twitch for awhile now and still cant seem to get it working right. As soon as I start streaming or preview streaming my in-game FPS drops to about 10-15. It happens with every game I try. Ive tried the suggestions that I could find online but to no avail.

Any suggestions? So I can actually play games while streaming.

You're going to need to downscale even further. That CPU is extremely weak, and real-time video encoding is a very computationally heavy task. You're duplicating and skipping over half of your frames.

Best advice is to look into a new computer with a capable CPU.
Failing that, switch to NVENC. It's meant for just this sort of occasion... a band-aid to allow those with non-viable CPUs to still stream. Your 650 appears to support it.

Also, you'll want to drop to 2000kbps if you plan to stream to Twitch so people don't buffer like crazy as they will at 3500.
480p@30 (or 20, 25 not advised)fps, 2000kbps, NVENC.

When I try to use NVENC it gives me an "Encoder Initialization Failed" Error.
