to anyone who may be interested i fixed the issue it was stupidly simple...
it was the fact i had the areo theme on + i was streaming using monitor capture, both together killed my frame rate, using game capture in OBS sorted all the problems out and disabling aero gave it another performance boost.
HI i recently setup a stream, first i will give you the issue, something is making my game lag? im not sure if that is the right word? its almost as if i have low FPS but i manage a steady 150+ this only happens while streaming and unfortunately i play like a dead weight with this "lag" :P on the viewers side everything looks smooth and fine but from my end i get this issue.
PC (not crazy good but good enough i think)
I5 2500k overclocked to 3.7ghz
4gb ram 1600mhz
asus P8Z68-V MOBO
EVGA GTX 560TI
my internet connection is lacking 60mb down, only 2.5 up
OBS settings (again not crazy good but i think good enough)
Max bitrate 1500mb/s same for the buffer
streaming at 720p 30FPS
all other settings would basically be at default.
Any help with this would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
I took another look and it would seem my CPU almost maxes out i am assuming this is the problem, clearly there is not much i can do to fix this but any advice on how to lower CPU usage would be helpful.
